Lincoln Highway Arts Festival

The Lincoln Highway Arts Festival has been held annually for the last 15+ years.

Artists and Artisans:

The Lincoln Highway Arts Festival has been a staple in Mount Vernon for over 15 years. Our artists have a little something for everyone at every price point, from up and coming artists to highly collectable museum quality pieces. We seek to strike a healthy balance between mediums, levels and price points. To apply to be an artist at this year’s festival, apply here.

Community:

The whole community of Mount Vernon looks forward to the Festival. With the Festival site located in the Main Street district, many of the shops get in on the fun and host art themed  pop-up events and sales throughout the Festival. The Festival will also include demonstrations, kid’s activities, music, food.

Performances:

What is an outdoor Festival without music? Mount Vernon is fortunate to have a thriving pool of musicians and performers who grace the Festival with their presence, keeping the energy high and crowds entertained. We have featured dynamic performances from The Better Haves, The Laid Back Band and Dance Arts Iowa.
