Culture Around the Corner

Culture Around the Corner is a brand-new multicultural arts festival coming to Long Branch, NJ, October 2–4, 2026, celebrating the incredible cultures, creativity, traditions, and people that make our community so vibrant. We’re bringing together artists, artisans, makers, cultural organizations, performers, and creative businesses for a weekend filled with music, dance, art, food, demonstrations, hands-on experiences, and plenty of ways for visitors to discover something new.

We’re looking for vendors for Saturday, October 3 at Union Ave Municipal Lot, 13 3rd Ave, Long Branch, NJ, who want to showcase and sell their work directly to festival-goers. We’re also looking for artists and cultural practitioners who can offer hands-on demonstrations, interactive experiences, and unique cultural activations — and these opportunities are paid! We are also looking for food vendors. This is a chance to introduce your work to a new audience, connect with the community, share your culture and creativity, and be part of the very first Culture Around the Corner.

We’d love to have you join us!
