Salem Art Fair & Festival
Bush’s Pasture Park
Salem, Oregon
July 18-20, 2014
The Salem Art Fair & Festival is a three-day outdoor celebration of the visual and performing arts. The primary focus of the event is the juried exhibition of gallery quality fine art and fine crafts, giving our audience the rare opportunity to meet, interact with, view the works of and purchase art from the individuals who have created it. Additionally, the festival offers artist demonstrations, art activities for children, live performances on 2 stages, and quality food, beer and wine.

MEDIA CATEGORIES
Media categories are used by the Salem Art Fair & Festival as a tool for organizing artists' images into logical, related groups for the jury's review. While a balanced show that equitably showcases both works of fine art and fine craft as well as diversity among media is a principal Salem Art Fair & Festival objective, the festival establishes no quota or entitlement by media category.
In order to ensure that the rules are followed, all booths will be vetted daily.
