Apply to be a part of one of the friendliest and most artist-profitable festivals in the country! Named by the Art Fair SourceBook among the Top 25 festivals in the United States for 2012! 2014 #1 one-day show in the country! 2014 #1 show featuring 100 artists or fewer! Named by Art Fair Insiders as among “America's Best Art Fairs 2013”!

The Marion Arts Festival presents 50 nationally sourced artists, offering both fine art and fine craft to an audience of 14,000. Marion is a "vintage uptown" type of community, and a part of the Cedar Rapids metro area.

Our show is regional, one-day, intimate and purposeful, with the mission to be an event through which you will thrive. (Here, we're obligated to insert that we're volunteer-driven, admittedly hokey and maybe a more than a little mom-and-pop). There are no bands, there is no beer...our festival is about the art (we do, however, cop to felafel). Our exhibitors enjoy a sincere welcome and an easy-to-do show. Visit www.marionartsfestival.com to view our 2014 artist lineup – you’ll find 50 of your most respected artist pals.
