Crested Butte Arts Festival (54th Annual)

Organizer's Promotional Message

The Crested Butte Arts Festival will once again be activated on historic Elk Avenue in the heart of the Crested Butte downtown Creative District. 

Crested Butte, known for its mountain charm and panoramic vistas, is also distinguished by a sizable second-home owner population that migrates to the region throughout summer months. These high-net-worth art buyers make up the majority of the festival patron base. 

The CBAF is proud to offer a robust Artist VIP house, hospitality Includes: continental style breakfast (2), 
catered lunches (2), snack bar & cold drinks, plus indoor bathrooms with running water.

All artists in any fine art, or fine craft medium are encouraged to apply to Colorado's premiere high-country art event.

We again look forward to producing a successful 2026 show for artists and patrons alike!
