About the Liturgical Arts Festival
The Liturgical Arts Festival of Springfield, a non-profit, inter-faith organization, was founded in 1995 by clergy, artists and community volunteers interested in expressions of spirituality in the arts. This inter-faith celebration of the arts is presented every two years and has evolved to include a juried liturgical and sacred art exhibit, music celebrations of faith held in local houses of worship, and sharing of religious traditions.

The Festival showcases excellence in the fields of music, dance, visual arts, drama, lecture, and architecture. It is a festival for all ages, all faiths, and all traditions.
An integral part of the festival every two years is the Sacred and Liturgical Art Exhibit held in conjunction with the Springfield Art Association. The juried exhibit includes ceramic, fiber, glass, jewelry, metal, mixed media, painting, photography, and sculpture. It offers a unique opportunity to purchase original liturgical art. Our next Sacred and Liturgical Art Exhibit will be in the Spring of 2020.
