Now in its 10th year, the Lower Town Arts & Music Festival continues a proud tradition as an award-winning festival. Since 2017 LTAMF has been produced by the Yeiser Art Center (YAC), a 501c3 organization that focuses on arts education and fostering creative art-making. Under the YAC's guidance LTAMF has continued to not only thrive but also excel as a venue for quality regional art, fabulous regional music, tasty regional food and as an all around stand-out regional festival! 2019 promises to be even more spectacular.
Our Festival takes place within a seven-block area of Lower Town, Paducah's charming Historic and Arts District. It is two blocks from the river front and adjacent to Paducah's downtown Main Street District where the YAC has its gallery.
Paducah has been designated as a UNESCO World Creative City for Crafts & Folk Art, one of only 3 in the United States. With this designation, LTAMF serves as an anchor for attracting educated buyers and art supporters. We partner with the City of Paducah to create two days of artistic magic. Our festival attracts crowds in excess of 18,000. We are known for our Paducah hospitality, and we have an amazing volunteer workforce to cater to our artists!
