The Monte Sano Art Festival is back. But, it'll look different thanks to some changes put in place during the pandemic.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — The Monte Sano Art Festival is coming back on Saturday, September 18, and Sunday, September 19, at Monte Sano State Park.

The art festival will feature more than 130 local and regional artists over the weekend. Arts Huntsville does not charge admission for the festival, but the park will charge $10 per car or $5 per walk-in attendee, cash only. Admission will go towards supporting the state parks system.

The festival will run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday.

“Monte Sano Art Festival is a great opportunity to enjoy the beautiful, mountain setting while you support our local and regional professional artists. Their work spans across a variety of mediums with art that will appeal to first-time buyers and long-time collectors,” said Arts Huntsville Executive Director Allison Dillon-Jauken. “Many of the festival artists continue to have limited opportunities to display and sell their work. We encourage the community to continue to support these small business owners.”

Arts Huntsville says local food trucks and musicians will be at the festival throughout the weekend. For a full list of foodtrucks and musicians, visit the Monte Sano Art Festival page on Arts Huntsville's website.
