Art on the Green 2026 - 58th Annual Festival

Art on the Green is the 58th annual fine arts and specialty crafts outdoor festival held July 31 through August 2, 2026, on the grounds of North Idaho College in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. The festival attracts over 30,000 visitors and is produced by over 300 volunteers. Accepted categories include cloth/fiber, glass, jewelry, leather, metal sculpture, mixed-media, painting, photography, pottery, printmaking, wood, and more. This is a festival for handmade items only; commercially manufactured items and kit work are not acceptable.

The festival features a juried art show gallery with approximately $4,000 in annual awards plus a people's choice award. Art is selected by a committee that reviews applications and assigns points for quality, artistry, uniqueness, and other relevant factors. Average submissions are 275 applications annually, with approximately 130 artists selected. Jurors score applications on a 1-5 scale using a single jury panel. Applicants not accepted may be placed on a waitlist.

Booth fees are $550 for a single booth (10' x 10') or $1,100 for a double booth. White booths only are required, and weights (sandbags, cement blocks, metal weights) must be used instead of stakes. A maximum of two artists per booth is allowed. Booth payment must be received by May 31, 2026. Cancellations with full refund (less $25 administrative fee) are accepted through June 30, 2026; cancellations after that date are not refunded. Check-in is Thursday 2:00-7:00pm, with setup beginning at 2:00pm. Festival hours are Friday 11:00am-7:30pm, Saturday 10:00am-7:30pm, and Sunday 10:00am-4:00pm. Artists must be present in their booths during all hours. Complimentary coffee and muffins are provided for booth artists Friday through Sunday mornings from 8:00am-9:30am.
