StateoftheOzarks Fest 2025 Saturday September 13 10AM to 6PM Downing Street Hollister Missouri

FOR CENTURIES, HARVEST festivals were a time dedicated to getting out of the routines of daily life and celebrating the successes of the year. In a day and age far-removed from the rhythm of the land, it is more important than ever that we do not lose this tradition, becoming overwhelmed by the monotony of everyday life.

StateoftheOzarks Fest is a one-day celebration bringing community together in a heightened street fair filled to the brim with food, art, craftsmanship, and uproarious fun, all tied to the history and culture of our land. MORE HERE | FESTIVAL APPLICATION |

Writers Artists Night

Writers Artists Night is an opportunity for people to exercise their creativity in collaboration with each other as a form of self-expression.

“Soul-baring,” “profound,” “cathartic,” and “healing” are just some of the words used to describe StateoftheOzarks’ longest-running art event. MORE HERE
