This year, we are shining a light on 200+ local artists and community partners who make Charleston a vibrant arts and culture destination. FestivALL is a celebration that is made possible because of the collaborative spirit of our city — which has rung true since our first 3-day festival in 2005. A special thanks to Mayor Amy Shuler Goodwin, Charleston City Council, and City of Charleston departments and crews. We are so grateful to ALL who help our City Become a Work of Art each and every year. That includes YOU — the Friends of FestivALL, sponsors, volunteers, and attendees. You believe in the connection and inspiration that the arts provide. I’m here to say thank you, and whether you’re joining us in-person or virtually this summer, know just how much you are appreciated. Enjoy ALL that our wonderful city has to offer. Happy FestivALL!
