Zora Neale Hurston Festival of the Arts and Humanities

January · 10 days

The Zora Neale Hurston Festival of the Arts and Humanities was founded in 1990 by the Association to Preserve the Eatonville Community to honor the legacy of author and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston and to protect the historically Black town of Eatonville, one of the oldest incorporated Black municipalities in the United States. Held each January, the festival spans ten days and includes scholarly lectures, literary panels, public art exhibitions, music performances, theatrical productions, and youth education programming. The festival has become an important pilgrimage site for scholars, artists, and readers committed to Hurston's work and to the preservation of Black cultural heritage.
