With  their roots dating back to 1968 the Colden Art Festival is one of the  oldest art festivals in Western New York. Back in the day, more than  10,000 people would come out for the festival. It was before festivals  became kind of the going thing to do.

​

The  festival features a juried  art show where artists showcase and sell  their works. Also included is a vendor area where crafters and local  businesses display and sell their goods. As an added bonus, acoustic  music is featured all day in the vendor area.
