Fall Arts Fair

About the Fall Arts Fair

The annual Fall Arts Fair features crafts from dozens of local artists, including jewelers, potters, painters, printmakers, bookmakers, glass artists, and fiber artists from Pullen and Sertoma Arts Center programs and the community. It’s an excellent outing for the whole family to get creative with hands-on art activities and live demonstrations by Arts Center teaching artists. The Fall Arts Fair also features local musicians and performers and food trucks.
