The Summer Art Fairs Return To The Streets Of Ann Arbor

ANN ARBOR - Organizers have announced the highly anticipated return of the Ann Arbor Art Fair (AAAF) for 2021. Like most events around the nation, last year’s event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

AAAF is the largest juried art fair in the nation spanning a 30-block radius in downtown Ann Arbor. It comprises three independently juried art fairs that run simultaneously over three days and include: Ann Arbor Street Art Fair, The Original; Ann Arbor Summer Art Fair; and Ann Arbor State Street Art Fair.

Together these three fairs will feature 600-700 independent artists from across the country in virtually every medium, including photography, ceramics, jewelry, sculpture, woodwork and more.

This year's event will look slightly different considering the pandemic and will occur July 15-17, 2021 -- down one day from the typically four-day event. Fair hours are Thursday, July 15: 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM, Friday, July 16: 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM and Saturday, July 17: 10:00 AM - 7:00 PM.

This year’s AAAF will also include more space between booths to allow for social distancing, masks will be encouraged, and hand sanitizing stations will be located throughout the fair to ensure the safety of everyone involved. Visit www.theannarborartfair.com.

With the AAAF quickly approaching, we would love to work with you on spreading the love and getting you in touch with any of the three fair directors, the local businesses and the artists for interviews and stories that would be of interest to your audiences/readers. We can also provide you with high-res imagery and videos as requested.
