The 57th Street Art Fair is a two-day outdoor celebration of the visual arts held the first full weekend of June in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago, adjacent to the University of Chicago campus. Considered the oldest juried art fair in the Midwest, the goal of the 57th Street Art Fair is to provide a venue for creators of quality fine art and fine craft to meet with the art-buying public. All artwork displayed at the 57th Street Art Fair must be original and produced entirely by the hands of the exhibiting artist: no reproductions, unlimited editions, or mass produced work. No work generated partially or in entirety by or with the aid of Artificial Intelligence is permitted.
