Harlem Arts Festival

Harlem Arts Festival (HAF) is a non-profit organization co -founded in 2010 by three young arts entrepreneurs living in Harlem. HAF presents multi-disciplinary performances in venues in and around Harlem throughout the year, culminating in an annual festival that takes place in Marcus Garvey park at the Richard Rodgers amphitheater. The performances showcase local performers and visual artists that inspire and nourish the artistic community in Harlem. The festival aims to promote arts education and literacy by implementing arts-related discussion forums, educational workshops, performance opportunities and activities for youth and family. The goal of the Harlem Arts Festival is to fuel the cultural and artistic prosperity of our neighborhood. In only a few short years, the Harlem Arts Festival has showcased more than 150 artists, garnered accolades from ABC News, The New York Times, Time Out New York, and more, and has served more than 12,000 audience members. In 2015, Congressman Rangel proclaimed June 27th to be “Harlem Arts Festival Day” to recognize HAF’s contribution to the community.
