Lewiston’s signature event features work by more than 175 exceptional artists and fine crafters. Located just five miles north of Niagara Falls, the charming streets of picturesque Lewiston have long attracted visitors to our unique shops, restaurants and parks.

Meet the Artists one-on-one and enjoy more than 20,000 original works of art - from functional to surreal, one-of-a-kind and limited edition art works form an unparalleled collection that can only be seen once a year. Our Featured Artists this year are Simon Brascoupé, Rosemary Hill and Karen Hodge Russell, who will demonstrate authentic and contemporary Indian art and conduct workshops in front of the Tuscarora and Friends Gallery, 736 Center Street. Don’t miss College Alley featuring student art work. Make your own art at the Make & Take Workshops sponsored by the Castellani Art Museum of Niagara University.

Bring the whole family for a weekend of art, music, food, street performers, workshops, demonstrations. The Lewiston Art Festival is the #1 event of its kind and the perfect way to celebrate your summer weekend. Center Street becomes pedestrian only for this two day festival.
Rain or Shine. Free Event!
