Bonita Springs National Art Festival
Consistently ranked among the top fine art festivals in the United States, the Bonita Springs National Art Festival is a premier juried event attracting serious collectors, passionate art lovers, and acclaimed artists from across the country and beyond. Held at scenic Riverside Park in downtown Bonita Springs, this nationally recognized festival takes place over three weekends:
- January 10–11, 2026
- February 7–8, 2026
- March 14–15, 2026
From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day.
Featuring more than 200 national and international artists across 16 fine art categories, the festival offers visitors the opportunity to meet artists in person, explore high-quality original works, and purchase directly from the creators. Under the leadership of Festival Director Richard Sullivan, who brings over 25 years of experience in fine art curation and festival management, the event has been thoughtfully redesigned to enhance both artist presentation and the visitor experience, with expanded booth spaces and a more walkable, immersive layout.
With a history of over 75 successful festivals and the largest attendance of any event in the area, the Bonita Springs National Art Festival is as meaningful as it is memorable. Proceeds from the event support scholarships for emerging artists and fund arts education programs in underserved schools, making this celebrated cultural tradition a benefit to both the arts community and the greater Bonita Springs area.
