Now in its 11th year, don't miss out on this opportunity to share your work with a sophisticated, art-conscious audience!
New in 2018: A one-day, 10-hour event format that gives visitors and artists more time for interaction; new public plaza featuring main stage performances and art installations; more art "live" demonstrations; expanded "junior bug zone" for kids art activities; beer and wine gardens; food court; free parking. A must see, must attend event!
Metuchen NJ has been a mecca for artists of every discipline for more than a century. The METFEST reflects the Borough's commitment to nurturing all forms of creativity and is just one of the ways Metuchen is the "Gateway to the Arts" of central New Jersey.
