Patron Package

Thank you for your interest in becoming a Patron of the Arts Festival.

Get more out of your Festival experience with the Patron Package. Join us for a fabulous Friday night kick-off party and enjoy an all weekend pass to the Patron Lounge!

Proceeds from Patron Package sales support the Arts Festival’s Artist Awards and your purchase demonstrates your commitment to helping Columbus Make Art! Please join us to help support the artists and the Columbus Arts Festival’s excellent national reputation.

Every Patron Package purchase includes one admission to the Patron Party the evening of Friday, June 10 and weekend access to the VIP hospitality areas at the Cultural Arts Center and in Bicentennial Park. Patron Packages are transferable. (Please note: Packages purchased by May 13, 2022 will be mailed. After that we will reach out to arrange for you to pick them up either prior to or during the Festival.)

The online portal to purchase 2022 Patron Packages (including the Patron Party) is now closed.

Patron Packages can be purchased during the Festival, June 10-12, at the VIP Hospitality area, located in the courtyard of the Cultural Arts Center, 139 West Main Street (look for the tent in the rear).

Any questions about the Patron Packages should be emailed to sjones@gcac.org, please note that as of Wednesday, June 8, response time will be slow due to onsite Festival work.
