The 47th Annual Westport Fine Arts Festival will now take place on May 30 & 31, 2020, in the quaint downtown commercial district of Westport.
The show is held on Main Street and the surrounding retail block, its original location. Last year saw record heat and humidity so we have moved the date to avoid the summer swelter and add a fresh energy to boost attendance and maximize sales.
Accepted media include original artwork in: Painting, Photography, Sculpture, Drawing, Printmaking, Mixed Media, Glass, Ceramics, Fiber, Jewelry, Wood, Metal and Digital Art. Your art will be viewed by thousands of patrons from Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts and beyond.
Westport is a year-round upscale beach community within commuting distance to NYC, especially popular during the spring and summer months. With a long-standing tradition in the Arts, Westport is the perfect backdrop to support this 47th annual arts event. This is a strong show for fine artists who seek an affluent, polished and educated audience for their original fine art and fine craft work.
Westport Fine Arts Festival is a juried Fine Arts featuring the works of 175 invited Artists. The town of Westport, Connecticut welcomes and supports this art event as an annual summer tradition. The show is juried for originality and quality of fine art and fine crafts. All artists are eligible to win cash media prizes and will be highlighted during the 2-day event. This year we will showcase outstanding works in sculpture and a special top cash prize has been dedicated to that media category.
Artists will be the focus of the show and all efforts will be made to ensure an Artist-Friendly environment for your success and comfort
Reserved artists weekend parking and overnight security are provided as well as morning coffee, lunch and a Saturday evening artists reception.
