A family friendly, weekend long event from August 12th through August 13th, 2023. We welcome art installations of all shapes and sizes, even performances, through out Lynchburg and the surrounding counties. Decorate your front yard, driveway, balcony, or windows- as long as your public art is visible from the road or sidewalk!

THIS YEAR ARTSTORM WILL LOOK A LITTLE DIFFERENT! WE ARE INVITING THE PUBLIC TO SUBMIT DESIGNS FOR THREE LAYER STENCILS THAT WILL BE INSTALLED AROUND THE CITY OF LYNCHBURG NEAR STORM DRAINS.

Storm drains bring stormwater (and any pollutants that water picked up) to our creeks and streams, where it enters the James River untreated. Be a Guardian of the James and help remind people Only Rain Down the Drain!

We’re proud to bring Power Tools Racing again in 2023 as a featured event at the annual MAKER FAIRE LYNCHBURG.

We invite you to this family friendly competitive event. Simple rules, tons of fun!

Take a hand-held power tool, turn it a custom racing machine, and compete with your friends and neighbors. Don’t forget to decorate your racer and give it a bold name. Makers of all ages competed for prizes and bragging rights!
