Art on the Square
Welcome to the 22nd Annual Art on the Square – One of the nation’s top juried fine arts festivals presenting the work of approximately 100 artists which takes place on the Public Square in Belleville, IL in the greater St. Louis metropolitan area.
Art on the Square is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization led by an all-volunteer executive board with the assistance of hundreds of community volunteers who work to make the show a success. Proceeds from the fair are used to promote the arts in southwestern Illinois and to support individual programs and community outreach sponsored by the Art on the Square Foundation.
The show has been in the top 1% of art fairs since its inception in 2002 and is known for its innovative Art Cash program which exceeded $75,000 in pre-event sales in 2023. In addition, Art on the Square offers $32,000 in awards.
The festival continually features strong average attendance of over 60,000 visitors, regional advertising worth more than $100,000 and a reputation for great hospitality which provides artists with an outstanding opportunity for success.
