ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
Rochester's largest and longest-running fine arts festival continues to evolve. Originating as a New York State only artist festival, Clothesline has expanded in recent years to welcome artists from across the country. It's now the place to experience all-day live entertainment, sample food from some of Rochester's favorite vendors, enjoy free family art activities, visit the museum, and of course, browse and buy original artwork throughout the grounds.
Each year sees the addition of more festivals, but Clothesline remains a favorite with artists. Because MAG charges admission and screens the work of the exhibitors, serious shoppers are more in evidence than at other festivals.
