2024 Sponsorship Opportunities

To discuss sponsorship opportunities please contact us at office@allenartsalliance.org

Founded in 2009, the Allen Arts Alliance Arts Festival has become a highly-anticipated Mother’s Day weekend (2nd weekend of May) tradition in Collin County and the north Texas region. This is the major annual fundraiser in support of the Allen Arts Alliance which is a consortium of arts and culture organizations in Allen, Fairview and Lucas.

This family-friendly festival features a wide variety of free events including; interactive art experiences, music, dance and entertainment. The festival attracts a diverse group of fine art exhibitors from all over the country.

The festival also showcases a wide variety of artistic performances, interactive children’s art related activities and delicious food and drink options available through the wide variety of restaurants at Watters Creek.

In 2018 the festival featured 60 visual artists from all over the country, showcasing work in diverse categories ranging from watercolor to photography and sculpture. The festival has become a can’t miss event for art lovers, art collectors and locals who love this annual celebration of the arts and culture in our community.

Funds raised from the booth and sponsorship revenue are distributed back to the community by the Allen Arts Alliance through grants to non-profit art and culture organizations,  Arts Alliance programming in the Blue House Too ArtSpace, Art Education in the schools and community including; ArtSparks which brings art literacy programs to preschool and elementary school students including special education classes, and ArtReach which provides opportunities to underserved community members, summer art programs, and a variety of other free activities offered in the community throughout the year.
