The second annual Door County Contemporary Art Fair will return to PenArt in Fish Creek, June 4-7, bringing nationally recognized galleries and artists back to Door County for what is described as one of Wisconsin’s premier summer art events.
The four-day fair will feature painters, sculptors, photographers, printmakers and mixed-media artists from across the country, and the globe, along with artist talks, panel discussions and special programming designed to connect collectors, curators and art enthusiasts. VIP passes will offer early entry and access to exclusive works, as well as local food and hospitality experiences.
The inaugural event held last year drew more than 3,400 attendees and 20 galleries from around the nation, and the globe, generating more than $120,000 in art sales and helping establish the fair as a growing cultural and economic force in the Midwest art scene.
“We’re excited to welcome visitors back to Fish Creek for another year of exceptional contemporary art and meaningful community connections,” said Marketing Director Rachel Sauer. “Door County has such a wonderful local art community and art scene, it’s a vibrant nexus of creativity, commerce and connectivity.”
Sauer said organizers aim to create an inviting alternative to larger commercial art fairs. “Every single year want to make the event better and more meaningful,” she said. “Whether someone is a seasoned collector or buying their first piece, we want everyone to feel inspired, included and welcome.”
