The Muskegon Area Arts And Humanities Festival joins hundreds of arts and humanities organizations and communities across the nation in celebrating National Arts and Humanities Month throughout October. The Festival brings awareness of the arts and humanities to the people of our community through activities that honor the efforts of artists, historians, and cultural groups working to make the arts and humanities a part of everyday life.

In October 2021, various arts, humanities, and community groups will collaborate on Muskegon’s 20th Annual Muskegon Area Arts & Humanities Festival. The festival’s mission is to celebrate, acknowledge and examine the world of ideas as they are expressed in the arts and humanities. The festival encourages the entire community to explore cultural, artistic, and educational events centered on a central theme.
