    A City Becomes a Work of Art
    FestivALL


    A city-wide, multi-arts festival in Charleston, WV showcasing a mix of music, theater, dance, visual art, and more each June. Nestled in the heart of Appalachia, over 100 FestivALL events will take place in more than 50 locations across the city of Charleston, ranging from outdoor spaces to theaters to intimate galleries and event spaces. Join the capital city community in celebrating ALL of the arts, performed by local, national, and international talent.

    FestivALL directly produces some events, co-produces some events and presents some events that are produced by other individuals and organizations.

    Ice Cream & the Arts is a street fair and chalk art festival in the Elk City District of the West Side.

    Free ice cream is available to attendees as local artists and chalk artists create their own chalk masterpieces.

    Attendees can enjoy numerous participatory art activities as well.
