Get matched →The 57th Street Art Fair is a two-day outdoor celebration of visual arts held the first full weekend of June in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago. Considered the oldest juried art fair in the Midwest, it provides a venue for creators of quality fine art and fine craft to meet with the art-buying public.
Open to creators of original fine art and fine craft. All artwork must be original and produced entirely by the hands of the exhibiting artist. No work generated partially or in entirety by Artificial Intelligence is permitted. Returning artists in glass, jewelry, and leather categories will be re-screened for 2027.
Artists may apply in up to two categories but only once within the same category. Each category requires a separate application and separate images with a booth shot. Accepted media include: ceramics, digital art, drawing, fiber, glass, jewelry, leather, mixed media, painting, paper, photography, printmaking, sculpture, and wood objects/hand-crafted furniture.
Every listing links to the organizer's official page. Always confirm deadlines, fees, and entry rules there before you apply.
Artists selected to participate must notify the fair of intent to exhibit and submit the booth fee by April 15, 2027. Participation is not confirmed until the booth fee has been paid. If accepted in two categories, artists must purchase two booths, which may be located next to each other.
