About the Festival

The Lakeview East Festival of the Arts happens on Broadway, from Belmont to Hawthorne. The street is closed to traffic, and turns into a creative haven. We have two stages of live music, beer tents on site so you can sip while you shop, and local restaurants as food vendors so you won’t go hungry! We have a kidzone on site as well, with entertainment, arts and crafts, and more, so you can bring the whole family out for some fun! With over 120 artist booths, plan on bringing home something beautiful, whether it’s a painting to add to your collection, a funky ceramic sculpture, or some jewelry to gift to a loved one.
