About the Festival
The Long Island Public Arts Festival (LIPAF) is an immersive public arts exhibition known for showcasing diverse artworks on striking, life-size prisms.

Our mission is twofold: to provide an accessible and engaging arts festival for our community and to create new opportunities for talented local artists. The festival champions inclusivity, embracing both a diverse range of artists and a wide spectrum of artistic mediums.
