The organizers of the Doylestown Arts Festival have announced the juried lineup of artists who will brighten the Borough streets on Sept. 7 and 8 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day.
As the backbone of this cherished community tradition, over 160 artists converge on the streets each year to share their unique creations and artistic visions with thousands of attendees and art collectors.
Over 160 independent artists will be featured in this year’s festival. Their handmade creations span a variety of styles, media, and scale while offering the community the unique opportunity to meet and converse with the artists themselves. Featured works from hyper-local and regional artists will include ceramics, drawing, fiber, glass, painting, jewelry, metal, mixed media, photography, sculpture, wood, and more.

“The gathering of arts and music filling our downtown spaces is a highlight of the year for me. I enjoy living in a community that works together to showcase and support folks who are so talented. Interacting directly with artists and seeing live music is a unique and inspirational experience,” said Doylestown Borough resident Megan Fraser.
The Doylestown Arts Festival has supported local and regional artists and performers for over 30 years, drawing an audience of buyers and collectors from near and far, while showcasing unique and one-of-a-kind works of art for all to enjoy.
Featuring five stages of live music, along with live art and interactive activities, this event—which is free to the public—is designed for the entire community and visitors to experience. Founded in 1991 by a volunteer group of businesses and residents, the festival now celebrates 33 years of showcasing creativity in Bucks County.
