Submissions Open Sept. 1 to Nov. 1 for 2025 Competition & Festival
Submissions are now open for the ArtFields 2025 Competition & Festival! The festival is a unique celebration of art and community in Lake City, SC and includes visual art, live entertainment, an artisans market, plein air day, and much more.
Hundreds of artworks are exhibited throughout our downtown in galleries, warehouses, restaurants, shops, and other venues. Thousands of people will see it, including art curators, collectors, critics, and news media. This event offers a special way for art to be displayed outside of the traditional white walls of a gallery or museum and encourages the public to have impactful art experiences everywhere they turn-from grabbing their cup of morning coffee to getting a haircut.
Artists interested in submitting their artwork for the competition portion of the festival should read the 2025 rules by clicking HERE and submit their artwork via our online platform, ArtBooth. Submissions will be rated by a panel of art professionals and the highest rated artworks will be invited to participate in the 2025 competition.
