Description

The Zipper Fest was created to combat social isolation and loneliness in our community by bringing people together to connect through interactive art forms. Please join us for the 2024 Zipper Festival in Columbia, MO along Faye Street and the railroad tracks by Witches and Wizards and Six Mile Ordinary. The Festival is a fun mix of talented artists and crafters selling their goods, unique performances throughout the day, interactive art installations, live bands, and a variety of great food options. The Festival runs from 1-7pm on Saturday, September 7th. This event is FREE to attend. Please beware of scams. You do not need to purchase a ticket to attend this festival. We are so excited to celebrate our awesome community again and connect with new and old friends.

Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram (@thezipperfest) for announcements about bands, artists, crafters, performers, and food options. We'll also give updates on this event closer to the festival so make sure to RSVP here to receive those updates.
