For 57 years, this favorite summertime kick-off event has been a gathering ground for artists, entertainers, vendors, community members and visitors--bringing thousands of people to Roseburg's lush Fir Grove Park. Celebrating the abundance of artistic and creative talent found in the Land of Umpqua and beyond, SAF is a one-of-a-kind experience for all involved--from the artist vendor to the festival guest. SAF is a community arts and culture event managed by UVA, a rural Oregon nonprofit with the mission to 'create and foster a climate that supports arts appreciation, participation and education'. Proceeds from this event support UVA's year round work to provide arts and cultural experiences and essential education opportunities in rural Oregon. The three-day festival hosts over 100 artist vendors, has live music from local and regional bands, highlights Pacific Northwest culinary creations and craft beverages--and so much more. ### General information 58th Annual Summer Arts Festival Dates: June 25th, 26th, & 27th, 2027 Festival Hours: Friday: 10 AM – 9 PM | Saturday: 10 AM – 9 PM | Sunday: 10 AM – 4 PM Art Vendors Open: Friday: 10 AM – 8 PM | Saturday: 10 AM – 8 PM | Sunday: 10 AM – 4 PM Application Timeline: Applications Open: October 1, 2026.
