The Summerlin Festival of Arts is an outdoor art festival on The Lawn at Downtown Summerlin in Las Vegas, held over a Friday through Sunday in the second week of October from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. More than 100 artists from across the country show paintings, sculpture, photography and mixed media, selected by a jury panel, and the festival has been on The Lawn since 2015.
Admission was free at the latest festival, which makes it an easy fall outing for families in Summerlin and across the valley. Downtown Summerlin says the festival offers children's activities. The announcement for an earlier festival described a Children's Pavilion hosted by Discovery Children's Museum, with a leaf hedgehog craft, face painters, balloon artists and community mascots, plus hands-on science activities from the UNLV Engineering School.
The festival's page on summerlin.com posts an event guide, an artist directory and an event map, so open those before you go.
