Front Gate: Programs and Ticket check

Mark your calendars for October 19 and 20, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm Saturday and 9:00 am – 4:00 pm Sunday, rain or shine, to be a part of this soulful and fun connection of art, artists, music, and friends! This two-day festival has been a part of the lives of many collectors and undiscovered artists who are now in textbooks, galleries, and museums, such as the High Museum in Atlanta and the Smithsonian Museums in Washington, D.C. In 2024, the Kentuck Festival of the Arts will be held in a 10-acre section of Snow Hinton Park in Tuscaloosa, AL. Snow Hinton Park is currently undergoing improvements, including new bathrooms, several permanent pavilions, and many benches for festival guests to use. A parking lot dedicated to accessible parking will be available on site, and public parking will be available at no cost in neighboring lots. As usual, the Kentuck Festival of the Arts will feature 270+ artists. They bring their art and unique stories of adventure and challenges that enrich and encourage the soul. Food trucks, craft beer, art demonstrations, a fun-filled kids’ area, music stage, and spoken word stage also bring delight to all of the senses! The Festival is part of the Kentuck Art Center's year-round programming, and we are proud to invite you to our 53rd Festival to experience for yourself why so many call this festival “A Heaven of a Place”.
