Crystal Bridges Museum Art Fair 2026

About the Opportunity

Hosted by Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art

This fair offers a unique and elevated experience compared to other regional craft fairs. This event goes beyond just showcasing art – it creates an immersive environment that highlights high-quality, curated works from both local and national artists. By being hosted on the Crystal Bridges campus, a renowned cultural institution, we elevate the event to a higher level of sophistication and accessibility, attracting art enthusiasts and collectors who may not typically attend traditional craft fairs. In doing so, we fill the gap of providing a refined, artistic platform that fosters deeper connections, supports artists at all stages of their careers, and brings the community together in an inspiring and dynamic way.  The art fair will represent modern and traditional artists.    The CBMAA Art Fair is the ONLY art fair affiliated with Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and the Momentary.
