## About

Art in Des Moines is not some quiet side hobby anymore, it is what people actually talk about. Scroll any local feed and you will see the same names popping up again and again, from wine soaked sessions like Uncorked and SNIP & SIP!, to more serious nights with a live performance, film screening, and artist conversation wrapped into one. The point is, if you care about the best art in Des Moines, you are already tripping over it.

The Des Moines Art Center is still the one you go to first, and yes, locals know it. It is where bigger conversations happen, the kind of place that can pull off an Artist Conversation titled “The Fall” without sounding pretentious. Expect crowds that actually read wall labels, students sketching in corners, and people who live for this stuff. If you want a proper deep dive into art events in Des Moines, this is home base.

Then there is the film crowd, which has quietly become its own culture here. The 2026 Latino Film Festival, Festival de Cine Latino 2026, pulls in everyone from language learners to hardcore cinephiles, and gives the city something way richer than a basic movie night. Toss in a strong run of film screenings and live performance nights at spots like Stoner Studio Theater at Des Moines Performing Arts and you get a city that treats film as art, not background noise.

On the more social side, things like Social Saturday: Plot Twist and Inked: 8 Printmakers are exactly the kind of art events locals keep to themselves. These are the nights where you can actually meet artists, get ink under your fingernails, and walk out feeling like you did more than just look at stuff on walls. It is casual, a little chaotic, and very Des Moines.

A few key stops for art in Des Moines:

• Des Moines Art Center, the anchor for serious exhibitions and artist talks.
• Stoner Studio Theater at Des Moines Performing Arts, for live performance and film driven art shows.
• 542 5th Street in West Des Moines, a regular setting for sip and create sessions like Uncorked and SNIP & SIP! and other social art experiments.
