About
Overview
The Kensington Art Fair is a Southeast Michigan favorite, often designated one of the top shows by Sunshine Artist Magazine. The beautiful setting is convenient, comfortable, and attractive. The show is limited to about 100 booths to increase artist success. Marketing is designed to attract qualified high-end art collectors. Integrity Shows uses a three-year jury system—artists are guaranteed a space for 3 years provided they apply by the deadline and abide by show rules. At least half the spaces are available in any given year.
