58th Annual Park City Kimball Arts Festival

The 58th annual Park City Kimball Arts Festival is a three-day, award-winning visual arts festival held on Park City's historic Main Street. The festival features 13 visual arts media categories and attracts more than 25,000 art enthusiasts from around the world. Professional artists are selected by a blind jury to showcase their work. In 2026, the festival drew 195 participating artists with reported art sales totaling over $2 million. Artists retain all revenue from artwork sales; the Kimball Art Center does not take any portion of sales. The event also features live music, gourmet food and drink, and creative collaborative activities. Proceeds support the Kimball Art Center, Park City's nonprofit community art center since 1976, funding art education in public schools, exhibitions, scholarships for low-income children, and hands-on instruction for teenagers.
