About the event
48 Blocks is a program of the Atlantic City Arts Foundation, dedicated to bringing public art to every Atlantic City neighborhood, made possible by our networks of artists, volunteers, donors, and community partners. It includes the 48 Blocks Festival and Atlantic City’s largest mural arts program.
48 Blocks Festival is a fully-loaded festival, complete with two stages of local live music, theater, and poetry, a full schedule of art activities and demonstrations, a marketplace of exhibiting artists and vendors, community resources, food vendors, and most importantly, you.
This festival is dedicated to the diverse and unique; to the beautiful and strange; the beloved and misunderstood: to the artist in us all.
Evolving from a citywide public arts initiative, 48 Blocks Festival is a culmination of Atlantic City’s creative energy presented as a free day-long celebration of art, culture, and community, where everyone is invited and participation is encouraged.
