Discover the talents of 172 artists from across the United States, set against the backdrop of Lake Michigan and the charming hospitality of St. Joseph. Let our team of 300+ volunteers guide you through all the Art Fair has to offer, and consider supporting the professional artists by making a purchase that will be cherished for years to come!
The annual event predates Krasl Art Center (KAC) and is where our benefactress, Olga Krasl, developed a love for the artist community in Southwest Michigan. What started as a clothesline art fair in a local park has grown to be one of the top fairs in the U.S., drawing talented artists from across the country to our beautiful community.
Additional event information, including our pet policy, is available on the Plan Your Visit page.
