34th Annual PAFF Art Fest

AUGUST 21-24, 2025Baldwin Hills Crenshaw

The 2025 Pan African Film & Arts Festival Artfest (PAFF Artfest) is back—and we’re bringing the creativity home to Baldwin Hills Crenshaw! This vibrant, open-air celebration of artistic excellence features over 100 world-class artists showcasing work influenced by the beauty, struggle, and soul of Africa and its diaspora. From bold oils and delicate watercolors to glass, ceramics, textiles, metalwork, and mixed media, Artfest is where fine art meets cultural storytelling.

But it’s not just about what’s on the canvas. Discover handcrafted jewelry, wearable art, home décor, one-of-a-kind fashion, and more—curated to reflect our global Black aesthetic. With styles, prices, and pieces for every taste, it’s no surprise that PAFF Artfest draws over 100,000 visitors each year.

This year, we’re thrilled to return to the heart of the community–Baldwin Hills Crenshaw!.

Come for the art. Stay for the culture. Celebrate the legacy.

The PAFF ArtFest is sponsored in part by grants from The Los Angeles County Arts Commission and the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs
