Willoughby ArtsFest

The 2025 Willoughby ArtsFest presented by Lake Erie Distillery and Raw Roofing Solutions in partnership with The City of Willoughby and Tour Lake County OH will be hosted in wonderful Historic Downtown Willoughby on July 19th!

The streets of Downtown Willoughby will be lined with over 125 juried artists featuring an assortment of artistic pieces from paintings to mixed media. Throughout the event, entertainment will be provided at the Entertainment Stage, presented by the Kilbourne Family, located at the Gazebo in Pointe Park. Specialty food trucks and vendors will be spread out throughout ArtsFest for a meal, or you can dine at the amazing restaurants located in downtown Willoughby.

In the festival's 34-year history in Downtown Willoughby, it has grown to be a staple event drawing artists and attendees from all over the region. Each year the ArtsFest continues to evolve as a celebration of arts and culture adding artists and entertainment. We offer a Kids Studio, where kids of all ages have the opportunity have a hands-on experience with art, compliments of the Willoughby Eastlake Library and the Willoughby Arts Collaborative.

You don't want to miss the Auction Tent, featuring unique artwork from over 100 artists. Tickets are only $5, and you will have the chance to take home a one-of-a-kind piece of art. 100% of the proceeds supports the WWLCC student scholarship and business grants.

The ArtsFest Committee is made up of volunteers from local businesses and community members. Our committee members give countless hours of their time year-round and provide feedback to keep the festival unique, exciting, and fresh.

Year in and year out, the Willoughby ArtsFest would not be possible without the businesses and individuals that give their time and sponsorships. Their generosity enables the Willoughby ArtsFest to remain a free event.

We look forward to seeing everyone at the ArtsFest on Saturday, July 19th from 10am-5pm!
