Greetings from the 22nd Annual Marion Arts Festival, in Marion, Iowa! (Adjacent to Cedar Rapids, in East Central Iowa).
Named by ArtFairCalendar.com as among America's Best Art Fairs 2013 and Art Fair SourceBook as among the Top 25 festivals in the nation for 2012, the MAF presents 50 artists, offering both fine art and fine craft to an audience of 14,000.
Marion is a "vintage uptown" type of community, and a part of the Cedar Rapids metro area. Our show is one-day, intimate and purposeful, with the mission to be an event through which you will thrive.
(Here, we're obligated to insert that we're volunteer-driven, kind of hokey and maybe more than a little mom-and-pop ... in good ways, mostly.)
There are no bands, there is no beer - our festival is about the art. (However, we do cop to falafel.)
Thank you for your interest, and for the work you do! We count ourselves 
lucky that you're out there. Please don't hesitate to contact us for information and encouragement!
