Festival Details

Each spring, the East Buntyn ArtWalk celebrates local artists and musicians with an amazing open-air bazaar of galleries set up in the front yards and porches of the historic east Memphis neighborhood. With the slogan “Outdoor Galleries, Outright Cool,” the ArtWalk showcases the talents of neighborhood residents as well as artists from around Memphis and the Mid-South. Works include a wide range of media, including watercolors, oil, photography, pottery, textiles, woodworking, jewelry, and stained glass. This unique arts fair offers visitors the opportunity to visit and engage with local artists while enjoying the hospitality of East Buntyn residents.

Admission is free, and the event is child and pet friendly!

Visitors can stop by the hub at St. James Anglican Church, 461 S. Prescott, in the center of the neighborhood, at the corner of Midland Ave and Prescott St. East Buntyn is near the University of Memphis and bordered by Central and Southern Avenues and Highland and Greer Streets. At the hub, pick up a free map to locate your favorite artists and discover new ones, meet a few neighbors, and enjoy continuous live entertainment by Memphis musicians. The headquarters will also host local food trucks offering refreshments. (see below for details).

The East Buntyn ArtWalk was created with three missions in mind: 1) to help local artists market their work, 2) to show off the East Buntyn neighborhood and its diverse and vital people, and 3) to provide an opportunity for East Buntyn neighbors to get better acquainted through collaboration, art, music, and food.  We hope you will join us this year for more “Outdoor Galleries, Outright Cool” in one of the city’s friendliest neighborhoods!
