Art In The Hollow 2026

A little bit about our festival:

Art In The Hollow is an organization for artists run by artists

Art In The Hollow is where summer starts on the East Side. We're a grassroots art festival run by artist organizers that transforms the idyllic Swede Hollow Park into a full-blown arts & culture festival every first Saturday in June. As a true East Side St Paul festival, we care about our neighbors and represent our diverse neighborhood with art, music, food, culture, nature & history. We make things affordable and accessible to artists at all levels of experience and walks of life, providing a truly unique festival experience for anyone making the annual pilgrimage to Swede Hollow each year.

Art In The Hollow depends on it's volunteers to make this event memorable and successful.

All volunteers receive a t-shirt for as little as 2 hours of their time.
