The Edwardsville Art Fair, produced by the Edwardsville Arts Center, is an annual 3-day outdoor juried arts celebration presenting 100+ professional local, regional, and national artists; emerging artists and student groups; local performing arts; live art demonstrations; children’s art gallery; a Maker’s Space; and local food and drink experiences. The fair provides an opportunity for our visitors to meet and interact with artists to increase awareness and appreciation for the contributions and talent in the arts, as well as to inspire young artists, compelling them to explore their passion. This family friendly event is free and open to the public.
The EAC is a 501(c)3 non-profit community visual arts organization with a four-person staff and a volunteer base developed to foster opportunities for local artists and aims to facilitate the appreciation of art through education, exhibitions, outreach, and special events to our region. Proceeds from the Edwardsville Art Fair directly impact our programming, which includes weekly free art classes for kids, free art classes for seniors, educational opportunities for all ages, community outreach, and the Edwardsville Art Fair to ensure that art is accessible to everyone in our area.
