Now in our 9th year, the Midsummer Arts Faire (MAF) continues to grow and thrive in a community and tri-state region where patrons show their appreciation for art and artists. MAF board members, staff and volunteers work year-round to promote the event to potential artists, community patrons/sponsors and tourists. Its because of strong financial support within the community that MAF is able to market the event to a tri-state region that includes over 600,000 people within 75 miles.
MAF is located in a beautiful shady park in the heart of our 
vibrant downtown. Easy access and flow to and within the park directs patrons into the 50 plus artists booths comfortably situated within generous 10'x10' spaces. Complementing the sale of fine art is free hands-on art activities, a local food court, and top-notch entertainment, including a very popular Blues in the District event on Friday night that brings in the crowds.
The fine art exhibition and sale includes approximately 50 artists chosen in a blind jury process by a panel of three art professionals. Many of our artists have so enjoyed the atmosphere, community, volunteers and sales that they continue to apply each year and MAF is blessed to have a healthy mix of new and returning artists. Artist exit surveys each year praise our volunteers for the excellent service and hospitality provided to our artists - we go above and beyond! WE LOVE ARTISTS!
