Reach a new & diverse audience!
Join us in beautiful Berkley Riverfront Park for our largest weekly arts & music festival ♥

Why is this event important to the KC community?

Art Garden KC's Berkley Riverfront Festival functions as a low risk/low barrier entrepreneurial "test kitchen", supporting over 60 diverse artists and innovators every Sunday from April - October.

Our booth fees for artists at Berkley are ONLY $10 - ensuring that all creatives, no matter their financial situation, can participate! For new and emerging artists, we even provide free canopies and equipment to those in need. At Berkley, creative entrepreneurs can expand their business budget, gain sales/marketing experience, develop their product display and eventually graduate to our curated markets in higher-traffic venues! 

Throughout the season, we also partner with fellow organizations to host entrepreneurial education classes for youth and small businesses. Beyond vendor impact, Berkley Riverfront Festival also provides a consistent space for KC families and individuals to play, create, heal and escape the craziness of everyday life together ♥

In 2023, Art Garden KC provided a $1.4 Million economic impact to the creative small business community and $10,700 in support to local musicians!
