This year’s artist lineup represents the incredible range of talent within Western New York’s creative community. The selection process was no easy task—nearly 170 applications poured in from artists across all five counties. To ensure an equitable and meaningful festival experience, artists were selected based on a balance of experience levels and mediums. We aimed to provide opportunities for both emerging and established creatives, creating space for connection, collaboration, and growth.
