Welcome to the Midsummer Arts Faire

John WoodWashington ParkKids making art







The Midsummer Arts Faire is designed to engage people of all ages and experiences in the joy of creativity.

Spend the weekend in Washington Park where 54 artists will exhibit and sell their work. Take time to talk with the artists and learn the stories behind the art. Many participants will demonstrate their art forms as well. Selected in a competitive jury process, this showcase represents diverse styles and techniques. You will find original oils and acrylics, vibrant watercolor, unique sculpture, dazzling jewelry, decorative ceramics, vivid photography and so much more.

Great entertainment, wonderful food and a variety of children’s activities complement the fine art show. Invite family and friends, bring lawn chairs, and enjoy a weekend in the Historic Quincy Business District.

A fine art festival is the result of generous community support. We thank our business, organizational and individual sponsors for their financial or in-kind investments, and our many volunteers for their efforts. We invite you to get involved! Sign up to become a volunteer at the information booth.

The Midsummer Arts Faire was founded by local artist Pat Surface in 2004 with support from the Quincy Artists Guild and a coalition of community and cultural arts organizations. The 2007 faire is again a collaborative effort, built on the strong foundation of Pat’s passion and dedication.

We invite you to color the summer with a 3-day experience of creativity and art!

Sincerely,
The Midsummer Arts Faire
