Snake Alley Art Fair is a daylong celebration of creativity and community, centering on a love for the visual arts. Growing from a start more than 50 years ago as a small gathering of local artists who set up for the day along historic Snake Alley, "The Crookedest Street in the World!"

Now an annual event, SAAF encompasses much to see and buy from Midwest artists. Everything at the Snake Alley Art fair is handmade and original. Meet the artist and learn about what inspires them and how they create their art. Each piece is made with love and care. SAAF offers a one of a kind experience to see and purchase original works of fine art directly from the artists who create them!

This family event also entails art-making activities for children, live music, and the best food vendors.

The Fair is organized by Art Center of Burlington, a local non-profit organization with a mission to use the power of art to awaken the creative nature that is in every person, to connect us socially and to contribute to the vibrancy of Burlington.

Join us as we celebrate the power of God’s life-changing love! You will receive a warm welcome at a church that loves you and loves to worship the Lord!
