Somerville ArtBeat 2024

Get ready for ArtBeat 2024, one of the largest festivals of the season! In addition to approximately 100 craft and food vendors, community organizations and general talent artists on the street we'll have two stages of music and a dance showcase at the Somerville Theater. This year's ArtBeat theme is “Wild.”

About 2024 Theme: WILD

At this year’s festival we will explore all that is wild and the myriad ways this word can be interpreted. Wild can convey that which is uninhabited untamed and convey images like lushness, luxuriance and nature in its pure unkempt form. Wild can also convey that which is feral, fierce and unconventional. How will Somerville and all its artists and community members interpret this theme? We anticipate a wild ride. Whatever the art form or mode of expression we seek performances and activities that are "out there" weird and exuberant. Let's generate artistic expression by leaving polite society behind and wander into the wild.
