Come Creative Spirit
The Liturgical Arts Festival of Springfield
The Liturgical Arts Festival of Springfield offers the Springfield, Illinois community opportunities for education, inspiration and appreciation of the many forms of spiritual expression found in the arts.
The Liturgical Arts Festival of Springfield (LAFS), a non-profit, interfaith 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 first Liturgical Arts Festival, held in 1996, included a visual art exhibit of works by artists from across the Midwest. That exhibit was named one of the "Best of Springfield" by a local newspaper opinion poll. Artists from all over the United States submit their liturgical and sacred art works for consideration to be shown in Liturgical and Sacred Art exhibit held at the same time as the Festival. LAFS and the Springfield Art Association (SAA) partner in this effort.
