The Wickford Art Festival is an annual arts festival held in July in Wickford, Rhode Island.

The Wickford Art Festival was founded in 1962 by two Wickford residents, and managed by the Wickford Art Association. The arts festival has a national and worldwide reputation among professional artists in the United States. The festival only takes fine, and not functional artwork, and admits more than 200 artists to sell each year. Attendance of the festival has been estimated at 60,000 and "close to 100,000".

The festival was included in the Local Legacies project undertaken by Congress in 2000.
