NOW Festival

What is NOW Festival?

The annual NOW Festival at Capital University is one of the most comprehensive and diversified celebrations of contemporary art and its creators in the Midwest. Since its founding in 1987, the Festival has one simple yet extremely important mission: to expose the Central Ohio community to international, national, and regional living artists and their work, exposing, exploring, and discussing the role of music in contemporary society. The concert series is eclectic in nature, covering a diverse range of compositional and performance styles.
