Newark Arts Festival 2021, powered by Prudential and produced by Newark Arts, is now in its 20th year as a free citywide arts festival in New Jersey’s largest city October 7 through 10, 2021. NAF will celebrate “Creative Resilience,” as it returns to in-person programming, and each year, the Festival puts a spotlight on Newark’s artistic and cultural institutions, features both nationally recognized and also emerging, local creatives, and provides attendees the opportunity to shop and purchase the work of over 100 artists in their open studios. Alongside the visual arts, music, dance, theater, and spoken word can be found throughout the festival, as well as hands-on art activities for youth.
