Since its first festival in April 1980, Artsplosure has presented scores of outdoor programs and large-scale festivals featuring thousands of established and emerging visual, performing, and interdisciplinary artists in numerous traditional and non-traditional indoor venues and outdoor settings. Past and present Artsplosure-produced events include the Jazz & Blues Music Festival, the African American Cultural Festival, First Night Raleigh, Live & Local Hillsborough Street , and its namesake event, Artsplosure - The Raleigh Arts Festival .
Artsplosure also offers programming and production support for other events seeking artistic components, such as J. Cole’s Dreamville Music Festival, IBMA’s Wide Open Bluegrass, Raleigh 4th of July Fireworks Event at Dix Park, and more.
Through our work, we strive to produce quality events that make the creativity of the most imaginative and celebrated artists accessible to the public – all in an effort to enrich our community and inspire greater love for the visual and performing arts.
