I BUY ART: Supporting the arts in Peoria

Again this year, we are proud to promote the I BUY ART Campaign which is exclusive to the Fine Art Fair in Peoria. The campaign was launched last year to reinforce a philosophy that the best way to support the arts is to buy art. “We are thrilled to encourage this initiative that promotes Peoria as a community that supports its artists. This will enhance our Fine Art Fair and our city as a supportive art community that welcomes our guests and artists to come back another time and explore more of what Peoria has to offer.”, said Shannon Cox Co-Director of the Fine Art Fair. This year’s collector buttons are purple and can be obtained from the artists when you purchase their work.

Kids Art Festival

We are excited to announce The Kids Art Festival will be up and running this year. There will be many interactive art activities for children of all ages. Art projects like SCULPTURE, COLLAGE, SAND, PAINT and CLAY will all be featured as the elements of art and principles of design are incorporated into each art project. There will also be a large community mural for the young children to paint and express themselves. A $6 entry fee into the Kids Art Festival area will be charged per child. The kids area is always buzzing with excitement and one of the most popular events at the Fine Art Fair!
