Midsummer Festival of the Arts

The John Michael Kohler Arts Center celebrates the Midsummer Festival of the Arts July 18-19, 2026. Over 100 juried artists offering original works across ceramics, painting, jewelry, photography, fiber, wood, metal, and more. Enjoy a weekend of live music, performances, exhibitions, hands-on art making, demonstrations, local eats, and plenty of fun.

The John Michael Kohler Arts Center, home to the Midsummer Festival of the ArtsThis is touted as one of the finest outdoor arts festivals in Wisconsin! Exhibitors include jewelry, ceramics, glass, sculpture, painting, drawing, photography, leather, sculpture, art glass, wearable art, and more.

Fun, hands-on workshops for the whole family include “Concrete Creations: Fantasy Faces,” Clay Play, Marvelous Magificent Mobiles, and face painting for the kids (I think it’s just for kids, heck, doesn’t hurt to ask if you’re a grown-up and want your face painted, too.)

Visit the food court where the Culinary Art Car and other food trucks will recharge your energy reserves with a wrap, cheese curds, bratwurst, gyros, ice cream, or one of many other delicious treats.

Festivalgoers will be treated to “finger-snappin’, toe-tappin’”, free concerts from the Levitt AMP Sheboygan Music Series. The lineup includes the Mark Croft Band and Well-Known Strangers on Saturday. This Big Life, King Solomon, and Big Little Lions are scheduled to take the stage on Sunday.
