Halifax Art Festival

The 62nd Halifax Art Festival located in the historic downtown waterfront area of Daytona Beach is the 2nd oldest continual art festival in the state of Florida. The Festival attracts over 35,000 art lovers annually, continuing its tradition of providing the community a showcase for Fine Arts, Fine Crafts, Crafts, and Student Art. The Halifax Art Festival is presented entirely by the members of the Guild of the Museum of Arts and Sciences, a dedicated group of volunteers who work nonstop, yearlong, to provide artists with an exceptional opportunity to showcase their work.

The two-day festival features the juried works of 200+ artists, with approximately 150 spaces reserved for Fine Artists competing for cash awards. Both fine arts and craft artisans are selected utilizing a jury panel scoring process.

International street cuisine and good old-fashioned festival food are available with Beach Street cafes and restaurants featuring Festival specials. There is entertainment/DJ playing a variety of contemporary and easy listening music.
