Downtown Ann Arbor is the hub of activity in the city and this July 20-23 it will once again host its popular Street Art Fair. For more than 50 years artists and art lovers alike have come from all over the state and beyond to experience this annual event. Along with meeting talented local artists, fairgoers get the opportunity to dine at fine downtown restaurants, find hidden treasures at unique shops and soak up all the sights and sounds of Ann Arbor. Even if you have attended art fairs before, you may never been to one quite like this.

A Big Attraction

The Fair is located on North University Avenue and University of Michigan’s Central Campus and is surrounded by beautiful scenery and architecture. The Fair’s setting has helped contribute to the large number of accolades that the fair has received, most notably being named the #1 Art Fair in the Nation by American Style Magazine in 2004. The fair continues to attract over 500,000 visitors annually to the gorgeous town of Ann Arbor.
