The People's Art Gallery is a celebration of the talent and diversity we have right here in our Avenues neighborhood! We dedicate an area of the Street Fair as an open air gallery where residents of all ages and levels can show off their creations and win prizes! We encourage entries of paintings, drawings, photography, jewelry and three-dimensional art. The art will be on display all day during the Fair and you can vote for your favorite as the People's Choice Award.

About the People's Art Gallery at the Avenues Street Fair
We invite artists of all ages living in the Avenues to enter their work. We encourage entries of paintings, drawings, photography, jewelry and three-dimensional art. The art will be on display all day during the Fair and all Fair attendees vote throughout the day for their favorite. The artwork with the most votes will receive the People's Choice Award. In addition to the People's Choice Award, a professional judge will award first, second and third place prizes in the following five categories:
- Child Artist, age 9 or under
- Youth Artist, age 10-14
- Young Adult Artist, age 15-18
- Adult Amateur Artist
- Adult Professional Artist
We ask that all artwork remain on display all day at the Fair, until the last hour (5pm to 6pm). All artwork must be picked up by the artist by 6:00 p.m. Prizes are ribbons and gift certificates from local art supply stores or framing shops.
Due to space limitations, combined height and width of two-dimensional work should not exceed 60 inches. All two-dimensional work must be ready for hanging. Three-dimensional work must fit on a 30” x 72” table, and must stand alone or include a stand.
