Join us for this special inaugural edition of Art Worth. Art Worth is an exciting new festival in Fort Worth, Texas. This juried festival of fine craft and fine art will be held on the lawn of Will Rogers Memorial Center within view of six museums, in the heart of Fort Worth’s Cultural District. This impressive collection of cultural resources also includes three theaters and the Will Rogers Center, a bustling hub for special events. The show will occupy the park-like plaza at the center of these institutions.
Art Worth will be an immersive experience aimed at heightening general appreciation for, and understanding of, art. Guests will be surrounded with art, and have the opportunity to learn about it through conversations with the people who make it. The festival will also present Fort Worthians with the chance to visit to enjoy classical music, food and wine, and visit with friends in the beautiful setting that forms the heart of the Cultural District; guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and make a day (or three days) of it.
The ArtWorks Foundation delights in presenting stellar works of art for art patrons and art lovers.
In addition to an amazing exhibition of the visual arts, our festival will feature limited performances of Classical Music, and the fare of several local eateries. Admission to this wonderful Art event is free!

Hello Samantha, Sorry I missed this. I hope you were able to attend the event. No, they did not include a website link with their listing. We try to alert shows to how important it is to add a weblink, but it is their decision to not include one.

Hello,
We'd like to post our Arts & Crafts Fair in Albuquerque, NM to your site...I assume the Southwest section would be most appropriate. Please let me know if this is enough to get us posted, or what we need to do. Thanks!
Posted by: Amanda | June 14, 2016 at 11:03 AM
Hello Rob, we do have that show listed on our calendar. Go look at the Texas & South West page where 2017 is. It is right there. The show starts January 14 in 2017. We are glad you are a fan of the show.
Posted by: Jacki Bils | April 27, 2016 at 04:31 PM
Surprised you did not list Celebration of Fine Art which runs in Scottsdale Az from mid January through late March. They have been at it for over 20 years and is one of my favorite shows to visit.
Posted by: Rob Talbert | April 27, 2016 at 03:55 PM
Hello Anna, Thanks for asking about the asterisk. If an asterisk is placed after a show date it means the show date is up to date. I have verified the date for the current year. The asterisk is actually for my benefit so that I know which show dates I need to keep looking for.

What does the * next to some fairs mean?
Posted by: Anna | February 29, 2016 at 09:08 AM
Hello Azizov, we are an art fair calendar. We do not run the art shows. If you want to be in an art show you will have to contact the shows individually that you want to be in. Each show has their own rules that you will have to follow. Good luck.
