For event info and updates, visit www dot manayunk dot com/events/ and follow @manayunkdotcom.
Thirty-five years ago, in June of 1990, Manayunk hosted its first arts festival. Festival organizers closed the street, lined it with juried artists and crafters, and gambled that people would travel far and wide to spend the day in Manayunk, and the bet paid off. From the very first year, record crowds attended the show, and from there, Manayunk as a district was off and running.
Joan Boroff Denenberg, a Marketing & Retail Strategy consultant for Manayunk, was there 30 years ago setting up the street. Her mother, Barbara Boroff, was the original promoter that brought the artists to Main Street. Denenberg reminisces “We were on the street marking and remarking up to 3am in the morning before the show. We had no idea how the event would go and just crossed our fingers that year one was good enough to think about year two…..the sun shined all weekend, the street was packed, we were featured on the front cover of the local paper….we knew we had something that would last and change Manayunk.” Joan and her now 89 year old mother will be celebrating 35 years and most certainly making yet again another craft or art purchase!”
The Manayunk Arts Festival, organized and operated by the Manayunk Development Corporation, is a no charge event open to the public and will feature artists from eight different disciplines: fiber, glass, ceramics, jewelry, mixed media, painting & drawing, photography, and wood & sculpture. Visitors can also enjoy food and beverages from Manayunk’s renowned restaurants and cool off by shopping at Manayunk’s unique boutiques and stores.
A special feature of the show is The Emerging Artist Program which features local and up-and-coming talent. This initiative allows young artists to begin showing and selling their work. Each artist is allowed to participate as an emerging artist for up to three years and then are extended an invitation to participate in the show. Many of the Emerging Artists are now regular participants in the show. This year, 30 Emerging Artists will be featured in the Main Street Emerging Artist Tents sponsored by The Main Street Team at Copper Hill Real Estate and Winnie Clowry in addition to 25 Emerging Artists in the Garden being featured at the PHS Pop Up Garden. The Emerging Arts Tents will be located on Grape Street and Roxborough Avenue, and PHS Pop Up Garden on Jamestown Avenue.
“We’re very proud of the Emerging Artist Program as we get to see so many new artists grow into festival artists, not only with the Manayunk Arts Festival, but with other festivals, shows, and circuits too,” said Caitlin Marsilii, Events Coordinator of the Manayunk Development Corporation. “With this year’s expansion in collaboration with PHS Pop Up Garden at Manayunk, we are excited to offer even more opportunities to emerging artists!”
Each year one artist’s work is chosen to be featured in all marketing materials. It has always been an honor to the chosen work and see it featured in magazine ads, posters, billboards and TV ads. The 2024 poster artwork, Poppy, is courtesy of Anastasia Alexandrin.
The Manayunk Arts Festival is a rain or shine event — dress accordingly!

Photography - Aaron Schantz Photography - Aaron Schantz: Native Philadelphian, adventure photographer, and avid traveler, Aaron Schantz brings art that has a story, and his photography is the medium by which he shares his adventures and lens to the world.

Drawing inspiration from growing up in Japan, her classical ballet background, and living in London, her clothing, handcrafted with draping and pinching technique is stylish, movement conscious, and great for all ages.
