ARTsarben festival Saturday and Sunday in Omaha

80 artists are lined up for this year’s ARTsarben.The festival is Saturday and Sunday at Aksarben Village in Omaha. This is the fourth year of ARTsarben, and Sunday’s events will coincide with the Farmer’s Market. Elizabeth Balazs, Festival Manager, says there are new additions to ARTsarben this year.

"We have our DIY, do-it-yourself adult art classes, and we’re offering a bunch of different things, including silk scarf painting, jewelry making, comic book drawing."

Balazs says the festival has evolved over the past four years. The first year, there were about 57 artists. Balazs says ARTsarben had music on the big stage in Stinson Park its first year, but street performers offer a more up-close-and-personal experience.

ARTsarben begins at 10 am both days. More information is available at www.artsarben.com.
