Collins Art Festival
See You in 2027!
The inaugural Collins Art Festival was just the beginning.
On October 3, 2026, we brought artists, makers, neighbors, and visitors together on Main Street in Collins, Iowa, for a day celebrating creativity, community, and the incredible talent found right here in Iowa.
We're so grateful to the artists and makers who took a chance on our first-year festival, the volunteers who helped bring it to life, and everyone who came out to shop, explore, and support local creativity.
And we're excited to do it all again in 2027!
Planning is underway for the second annual Collins Art Festival, and we can't wait to bring even more art, creativity, and community spirit to our little town.

The Collins Art Festival is a curated celebration of Iowa creativity. Our goal is to showcase original artists, skilled makers, artisan foods, and live demonstrations that provide visitors with a unique and inspiring experience. We strive for a balanced mix of mediums and reserve the right to limit the number of vendors in any category to ensure a diverse and high-quality festival.
