@stlartfair thank you so much for inviting me! This year marked the 33rd Saint Louis Art Fair in downtown Clayton, bringing together more than 200 artists from across the country with everything from ceramics and paintings to sculpture, fiber art, mixed media and so much more. I got to meet so many incredible artists and see work I probably never would have discovered otherwise.
(Most artists had a no picture or video sign.).

You deserve a round of applause 👏 For braving the heat, bringing the energy, and supporting a part of what makes our city so special.

The Saint Louis Art Fair presented by Emerson couldn’t possibly happen without the countless community members, volunteers, performers, restaurants, partners, sponsors, and ARTISTS that make us unique. To you all — THANK YOU!!

We’re proud to be here, 33 years strong 💪…and we hope that the fair makes you proud of this city, too 💗See you next year!!

Our Artists and the incredible work they produce is the best part of the Saint Louis Art Fair presented by Emerson! We’re excited to present the 2026 Award Winners, an honor given at the Artist Award Breakfast sponsored by Hoffmann. These second place, first place, and special award winners earn a cash prize and automatic entry into next year’s Art Fair!

This year, our Best in Show prize went to Jeffrey Zachmann, a spectacular metalworker from Fergus Falls, MN! He creates mesmerizing kinetic sculptures that are hard to take your eyes off of. In case you somehow missed him this year, catch Jeffrey and our other Award Winners at next year’s fair! by @stlartfair

How it started vs how it ended. Swipe to see how our floral in interpretation of the 2026 Saint Louis Art Fair commemorative poster by Amy Koch - Written in the Stars - looked like at the end of the fair. Thank you to everyone especially the kids who interacted with our art! Everyone had a fun time!! #stl #stlartfair2026 #saintlouisartfair #claytonmo #floralinstallation #interactiveart #budsstl #budsstlflowers taken in Clayton, Missouri by @stlartfair

@stlartfair is happening this weekend & there’s still time to check it out!

This is one of my favorite events! There are so many artists from all over the world but I really love learning about local artists we have in the STL area.

There are local restaurants with tents to try food from but I definitely recommend bringing your own water because it’s REALLY hot!

HOT TIP: parking in the garage above Pastaria/Flight Club is free during the fair and just a block away! taken in Clayton, Missouri by @stlartfair
