In 2011, the Sylvania Arts launched its first community festival: Maple & Main Art and Music Festival. This iconic event attracts more than 5,000+ people annually to downtown Sylvania. Musicians take stage to perform and Artists from all over the region line Main Street with everything from glass art, to ceramics, jewelry, and paintings. NEW FOR 2025…we have moved! Due to the downtown revitalization plans for 2025, Maple and Main will be held at the beautiful Olander park. A 60 acre lakefront park with majestic oak trees, trails, picnic tables, beach and more.
While strolling through the festival, take a break from perusing the art to enjoy a glass of wine or beer, grab something to eat from one of the many local food trucks and relax and enjoy a variety of local and regional music performances throughout the weekend.
Maple & Main is held the first weekend after Memorial Day each year. Make sure to follow our social media channels and sign up for our newsletter to find out all the details, including when applications for artists open!
