The 2025 East by Southeast Festival of the Arts celebrates local Asian-American Artists this May at the Lawrenceville Arts Center. East by Southeast (ExSE) is a network of Asian-descended Artists who call Atlanta and the Southeast home dedicated to connecting our artists to each other and the industry. The 2025 ExSE Festival is our opportunity to bring these artists to you – the public!

This 3-day festival presents artists across several media and includes well known names as well as newcomers. Have a favorite genre, like films or stand-up comedy? We have one day tickets so you can choose the program that most interests you. Want to gain access to as much art and performances as possible? Our 3-Day Festival Pass gives you the best value and choice.

Festival tickets also gain you access to a market filled with crafts, information, and a different food vendor each day. Updates on scheduled artists and vendors will be posted after March 10.
