2026 Arts Walk - Artist Submissions

Local artists invited to showcase and sell creative work at free recurring downtown event in Stevens Point.

The Riverfront Arts Center in Stevens Point is seeking local artists to participate in the 2026 Arts Walk, a free, recurring community event designed to showcase creative work while drawing foot traffic to downtown businesses. This is an excellent opportunity for artists to display and sell their work directly to the community.

Arts Walk is hosted three times each year, with 2026 events scheduled for June 5, July 24, and September 11, each running from 5 to 8 p.m. Artists can participate in one or multiple dates as preferred.

Participants will have the opportunity to set up along downtown sidewalks, on the Riverfront Arts Center lawn, or in the city square. This direct engagement with the community allows artists to connect with potential customers and art enthusiasts while supporting the revitalization of downtown Stevens Point.

Artists are responsible for their own setup and takedown. Those planning to use sidewalk space in front of storefronts must obtain verbal permission from the respective downtown business. The organizers encourage artists to sign up as soon as possible as spaces may fill up.

This is a community-focused opportunity ideal for emerging and established artists looking to gain exposure, build their customer base, and contribute to the vibrant arts scene in Stevens Point.
