Experience the vibrant Printer's Row Art Fest in Chicago's historic Printer's Row neighborhood, where the South Loop's hip and cool atmosphere sets the stage. Join us on Saturday and Sunday, August 12th and 13th, as we celebrate our fourth year of this incredible event in collaboration with South Loop Neighbors and the Greater South Loop Association.
Taking place on Dearborn Street from Polk to Harrison, this art fest showcases the talent of 100 carefully selected artists from both near and far. As you stroll through the show, be captivated by the diverse range of art on display, including paintings, street art, jewelry, up-cycling creations, photography, woodworking, sculptures, and more – with options available at various price points. Live music performances will fill the air, while local restaurants, cafes, and bars offer a delightful array of food and drink options.
The magnificent architecture that adorns Printer's Row serves as a stunning backdrop for the show, accentuating the area's beauty, culture, and creativity. Admission is free, and convenient parking is available nearby, including a parking garage just one block away on Harrison. The event is accessible to individuals using wheelchairs and strollers, ensuring everyone can enjoy the festivities.
We also invite attendees to bring their gently used wall art to the festival, where it will be donated to the Chicago Furniture Bank, a local nonprofit organization that assists those transitioning from shelters to permanent housing. Additionally, several artists from this show are participating in Amdur Productions' Green Ribbon Project, promoting sustainability and environmental awareness.
Join us at the Printer's Row Art Fest for a weekend of artistic exploration, community engagement, and creative inspiration.
