For over forty years, the Lakewood Arts Festival has brought local and national artists to the streets of Lakewood, Ohio the first weekend in August. The Lakewood Downtown Arts Festival, Inc. is a nonprofit organization that administers the show with the help of a team of hard-working volunteers and the cooperation of the city of Lakewood, Ohio.

Crosby Festival of the Arts (CFA) is a highly recognized fine art show. Since 1965, CFA has been held at Toledo Botanical Garden (formerly Crosby Gardens), set amidst the beauty of gardens and nature. Celebrating its 58th year, this festival is heralded as Ohio’s oldest outdoor juried art festival.

As the only show of its size and caliber in our region, participating artists are received enthusiastically by 10,000 or more guests each year. This three-day art show features not only beautiful artwork, but great local food and drink, and live music.
