Zepstone Arts Festival - lll

September 8th - 14th, 2025

Why Zepstone?

Our festival structure showcases a wide range of artistic talent, including film, dance, fashion, music, and visual art. Art underpins what it means to be human. Art stimulates innovation, preserves heritage and legacy, and fuels social awareness.

Our goal is to bridge gaps, to connect different varieties of artists together, and to elevate the arts community in the Salt Lake City and beyond.

We are “the people’s festival.” We believe that truly supporting the arts community means putting uplifting words into action. It means understanding that we are all in this together. It mean supporting our youth so that they can continue to build the arts community.
