2026 Festival Overview

We look forward to seeing YOU at Edgewood Church in East Lansing for our 41st Annual Festival! We’re happy to once again bring you a weekend full of community and inspiration. 

An Artist Market full of vibrant color and flavor, bringing you the work of regional women artists.

Friday Night, Janis Ian will be presenting her documentary film Breaking Silence, followed by a live Q&A. Stay tuned as we finalize our Saturday performance. 

 

A full afternoon of Day Stage performances, featuring singer-songwriters, multi-instrumentalist groups and choral music.

An online auction and silent auction at the festival.  An eclectic mix of items provided by local businesses and artists, winning bids support the financial stability of Women in the Arts.

All of this in a warm venue where, as you fill your soul with beauty, you can fill your belly with meals and treats at the Sistrum Café.

The Friday and Saturday Night Stage performances require tickets, but all other events/activities are free to the public.  You can support the work of this event by participating in online and silent auctions or offering a voluntary donation.
