Uptown Art Fair 2026
An iconic juried art fair featuring 200 artists, public art, and community activations reimagined along Lake of the Isles and The Mall.
The Uptown Art Fair returns in 2026, bringing together artists, performers, neighbors, and partners for a weekend celebrating creativity and community. Reimagined and revitalized, this year's event focuses on immersive public art, local business engagement, and an expanded neighborhood footprint along Lake of the Isles and The Mall.
The fair features 200 juried artists from across the country and serves as a major catalyst for urban transformation in the region. In a commitment to the neighborhood's long-term growth, 50% of the proceeds from the event will be reinvested directly into Uptown through a dedicated community initiative. Attendees can expect a diverse array of juried art, family-friendly activations, and food and beverage vendors throughout the weekend.
