KEW GARDENS COMMUNITY ARTS DAY 2026 A Day Full of Art, Music JOY & Fun for ALL!

Event Details
The entire neighborhood will be turned into an arts experience at KEW GARDENS COMMUNITY ARTS DAY 2026 on Saturday, September 19 (rain date September 27), noon to 5:00pm. This will be the 12th year of the Outdoor Art Fair, a very well attended event and the day promises to be a big celebration of the arts with a small-town feel. Expect an eclectic mix of artwork created by talented Queens artists including demonstrations of many of the art forms. As always, the art sales will be located on Austin Street and cohosted for the 3nd year by Austin’s Ale House on their back patio. Relax in Kew Gardens Cinemas Park while listening to four hours of talented local musicians playing a popular mix of music genres. There will be many experiences for children and adults to enjoy at the Arts Zone (“A Great Place to Create”), at the Sidewalk Chalk Art Festival (transform NYC concrete into intricate, wild works of art), learn about and meet some Reptiles at the Alley Pond Park Environmental Center’s table (noon-1:30), leave a message on the Wishes for the World Tree, be sure to stop by the public service organization tables, enjoy offerings by Kew Gardens businesses, AND expect LOTS AND LOTS of surprises and much much more!
(Location: KEW GARDENS on Austin Street, Lefferts Blvd & 83 Avenue)
