ADRIAN — Art-A-Licious, downtown Adrian’s annual fine arts festival, is now accepting
applications from artists who would like to exhibit and sell their work at this year’s fair.
The ninth annual Art-A-Licious will take place Sept. 18-19. Applications for the art
fair, which is a juried event, are due June 29.
“We are working to make Art-A-Licious a truly enjoyable show for artists,” art fair
coordinator Nancy Weatherby said.
She said the show offers reasonable booth fees, easy setup and tear-down and an artist
amenities area.
Since its founding in 2007, the Art-A-Licious festival has grown to include more than 80
artists from across southeast Michigan and northwest Ohio.
“The quality of our artists and the breadth of their work continues to amaze us,” festival
committee chairman Don Taylor said. “We are very pleased to have such a high level of artistic
talent on display each year at the festival.”
Media exhibited and sold at last year’s festival included painting, photography, ceramics,
sculpture, fiber arts, glasswork, woodwork, printmaking, jewelry and metalsmithing.
