VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! >> 2023 North Charleston Arts Fest

Help make this year's event a success.

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

The North Charleston Arts Fest is proudly produced by the City of North Charleston Cultural Arts Department. The annual five-day celebration of arts and culture highlights regional and local artists and performers in the areas of Dance, Music, Theatre, Visual Arts, Media Arts, and Literature. For more than 39 years, the festival has made quality arts programming affordable and accessible to the widest spectrum of the public, attracting residents and visitors to experience an array of free performances, exhibitions, and activities in a variety of venues, including libraries, community centers, schools, and parks. The event has matured into one of the most comprehensive arts festivals in the state of South Carolina with a schedule that offers something for all to enjoy, including concerts, theatre presentations, dance performances, children's programs, exhibitions, and more. All Arts Fest events are FREE!
