Saturday, August 12 from 10 am to 9 pm is the date and the fair is FREE to attend with free parking. Food will be provided by The Fargin Chef and local micro-brewed beer will be available.
40 visual art/artisans showcasing sculptures, jewelry, metalworks, and paintings will be featured – not mainstream product vendors - in order to keep the integrity as an “art fair.” Some of the many artists and artisans featured are Zacariah Messiah's unique spider art, Detroit-themed purses and art by Crafty Cop, handmade gothic jewelry from Creature Creations, photographer Laura Grimshaw, and the organizer of the Fair - artist Julie Fournier - will also display her paintings from her Smiling Eyes Studio.
Local music will also be showcased with 11 diverse acts performing during the day. The 2017 music line-up features hard rockers Liz and The Luckouts, metal from Blackmail, punky trio The Zotz, blues by Michigan Basement blues band, a Sex Pistols tribute band called Fabulous Disaster, and psychedelic art rockers Spaceband.
