For Exhibiting Artists

Des Moines Arts Festival® presented by Nationwide has ceased efforts towards executing the arts festival scheduled for June 26-28. Instead, the organization will focus on living its mission to Impact Lives Through the Arts by engaging the community in interactive arts-related experiences and execute on its strategy to support the professional development of artists in the region.

All 2020 selected artists are invited to the 2021 festival. We are currently not opening applications for 2021.
