The Des Moines Art Festival

Des Moines is proud to host the largest and most prestigious arts and cultural event in the Hawkeye State. Each year, the event draws more than 200,000 people. The festival features more than 150 professional visual artists showcasing their original work. You will experience art in a wide range of mediums reflecting the best of Iowa's artists chosen from almost 900 applicants. In addition to visual art, the event also hosts art activities, live music, two large stages, and pop-up performances.
