This is the 58th year for the Chesterton Art Fair, which draws art lovers from all over the Midwest.  Always the first full weekend in August, the fair will be held in a NEW location this year, Dogwood Park.  It's close to Interstates I-80 (Indiana Toll Road) and I-94.  This highly anticipated fair of 120 artists also includes artist demonstrations, music, a children's art experience booth and more.

What is new for 2016:
Our location!  We have chosen a very special location, Dogwood Park, in the town of Chesterton. 
 
With this move we will be able to offer more space for our fair to grow, ease of movement for fair-goers (this park is on flat ground), plenty of parking, and more food choices.  There are permanent restrooms, covered shelters with picnic tables, sidewalks, and a playground nearby.
 
Did we mention that it is within a mile of the Interstates?  This will make for an easy trip for our art patrons from nearby Chicago and Michigan.  We are expanding our children's booth activities, will have live music, and homemade food along with local restaurant fare.  This will be a great family-oriented art experience.  Also expect easy and convenient parking for you and a specially designated handicap parking area.
