.... where will I hang it?


Few, if any, cities can boast of a more beautiful facility. Our art fair was the first public event to use the Exhibition Hall in the Monona Terrace Convention and Community Center.

 

At times, the crowd is elbow-to-elbow at this popular event. Some shop for that special holiday gift, while others seek a treasure for their own home.

The beautiful, well-lit exhibition hall is an appropriate venue for our 140 artists and craftspeople. Not only can they sell their art, but they have time to educate the public on the varied styles and techniques used in the creative process.

 

Waunakee fiber artist, Anne Alessi, had an attractive booth of knitwear and accessories that invited customers to purchase something warm for the colder months ahead.

 

Children may also purchase artwork without their parents in our Young Collector's Corner. Many artists contribute work of much greater value for children to purchase for $3.00-5.00.
