East End Arts Council's 30th Annual Mosaic Festival
This event has ended
It ran Sun May 31, 2026.
This is an annual event. We have not confirmed dates for the next one, so check with the organizer before you plan around it.
Long Island's most colorful day of the year transforms downtown Riverhead into a vibrant outdoor gallery filled with live street painting, chalk art mini-murals, and community art activations. Families can enjoy hands-on art activities, performances by musicians and dancers, drum circles, and a variety of local artisan, retail, and food vendors throughout the day. This free, family-friendly celebration welcomes all ages and abilities, with no artistic experience required to participate and have fun.
All ages
