2026- Downtown Tyler Art Festival Vendors

Tyler Art Festival is a free community event designed to increase our local artists' visibility and attract people to downtown Tyler.

We invite artists who create and make their art! We will include painting, sculpture, photography, textiles, mixed media, and more. No resellers and no mass-produced, unsigned works are allowed.
