There’s something for everyone! While most of the festival is FREE, events on the Festival Schedule that require TICKETS are marked with a 🎟️.

The Buda Arts Festival, originally named the Buda Plein Air Festival, was created in 2020 by Inspired Minds Art Center to bring the community together outdoors, through art, in a mindful, healing, and celebratory way during a time of social restrictions, fear, and anxiety. Over the years, it has grown from a 1-day painting and music festival to a 6-day celebration of all-thing-arts!
