The Summer Festival of the Arts is a partnership between Youngstown State University and the local and regional arts community. Designed to promote the diversity of art in the Mahoning Valley, the event's centerpiece is a juried arts festival that equally welcomes regional and national fine art and fine craft artists as well as showcasing a range of performing artists. Participation by area ethnic, arts and cultural institutions offers unique opportunities for positive interaction between patrons and the community.
A new location, at Wean Park in downtown Youngstown, will capitalize on the success of this established arts event and continue important collaborations between all stakeholders and participants.
