East Falls is proud to present its 2nd annual ARTS BY THE RIVER FESTIVAL. Last year's event drew an estimated 1,000 people from the Philadelphia region. As artists sign on this year, ARTS BY THE RIVER promises to be bigger and better!

Located along the Schuylkill River, East Falls is situated in a prime location with easy access to several major thoroughfares including Route 1, Kelly Dr., I-76 and City Ave.

The ARTS BY THE RIVER FESTIVAL is one of many events linked to the two-week long annual East Falls Fall Festival. Heralding the success of last year's Falls Fest, 2007's ARTS BY THE RIVER FESTIVAL is the kick-off event for this community-wide celebration, held annually since 1985.
