The 35th annual three-day Denton Arts & Jazz Festival is a celebration of the arts. More than 2,000 professional and amateur performers on six stages showcase the best in jazz, pop, rhythm & blues and full orchestra music. In addition, community and school groups represent a wide variety of dance, choral, storytelling and theatre performances.

Fine artists and craftsman, who are juried, come from all over the region to demonstrate exhibit and sell their creations. Abundant options of food and beverages are available in addition to the entertainment. Clowns and other activities complement the festivals, including the large Children’s Art Tent that offers numerous art experiences under the leadership of qualified instructors.
