2026 FESTIVAL EXPANSION: APRIL 10TH – MAY 2ND in Lake City, South Carolina
The best time of the year just got even better! The 2026 ArtFields Festival is now longer, livelier, and better than ever. We can’t wait to see everyone April 10th – May 2nd. CLOSED SUNDAYS & MONDAYS.
The annual ArtFields Festival has become a staple of the region and offers over $100,000 in cash prizes. The winners of two People’s Choice Awards are determined by the votes of people visiting ArtFields; a panel of art professionals selects all the other awards, including the $50,000 Grand Prize and $25,000 Second Place award.
Nearly 400 works of art will be on display in locally-owned venues, from renovated 1920s warehouses and professional art spaces, to the history museum, the Ronald E. McNair Life History Center, restaurants, boutiques and other shops. Additionally, the ArtFields Jr. Statewide Art Competition features hundreds more artworks from talented South Carolina students in grades 1 -12. During the ArtFields Festival, what was once one of South Carolina’s most prosperous agricultural communities becomes a living art gallery as we recognize, celebrate, and share artistic talent.
*Venues are not required to be open on Sundays and Mondays*
