About the event

The popular Acworth Art Fest is a true celebration of whimsical and vibrant art in the historic downtown Acworth! We'll be celebrating our ninth year on Saturday and Sunday, August 15 & 16, 2020. To help ensure social distancing, the event will be held in nearby Logan Farm Park.The historic Main Street in downtown Acworth is within walking distance with restaurants and shops.Their creative booth displays decorate the park with paintings, pottery, metalwork, folk art, glass, jewelry, yard art and much more! The “Lake City,” just 35 miles northwest of Atlanta in Cobb County, is always abuzz with excitement over the two-day art festival. With Lake Acworth and Lake Allatoona in this beautiful, small town’s backyard, Acworth Art Fest is the perfect art-buyers destination. The City’s art scene is growing, downtown shops and galleries are hopping—and Acworth Art Fest is the sweet cherry on top of the delicious and enchanting community! Due to social distancing requirements, there will be no Kidz Zone or Food Court this year. Food vendors will be able to sell prepackaged items and bottled or canned drinks. Of course, there is wonderful food from Acworths' own eateries.
