Members of the Oak St. Art Group are planning the upcoming fine arts fair for Saturday, September 23, from 10am to 5pm, featuring the work of more than 20 local artists. Here are some of the things members are most excited about:

1.  Brick street / historic venue: Both Sue Gindlesparger (metals, jewelry) and  Rachel Malcolm Ensor (painting, mixed media) highlighted the location, along a charming brick street (Oak St.) in the historic arts district of Murphysboro. Come see the artists, musicians, and food vendors on Oak Street (south of Walnut) between 15th and 17th. (SEE MAP HERE.) 
2. Art for all: Ceramic artist Darby Ortolano loves giving exposure to both professional artists and artists who don't necessarily make their livelihood from their work. All artwork in the fair must be original, but artists of many stripes are represented this weekend, from college/university art faculty to art students to local people whose art is a labor of love.

3.  Sense of community: In a similar vein,  Ann Fischer (photography) and Rachel are excited about this chance to bring people together. Everyone is welcome! Artists, musicians, food vendors, and community members can meet and enjoy each other's company. 
4.  Front-porch live music all day: Sue is especially excited for the full lineup of local music, starting at 10am. Bring lawn chairs so you can sit and enjoy the music, live from the porch of the Jones House in the arts district.
​5.  Eats: Come for both breakfast-y and lunch/dinner deliciousness from Muglee's Brew (coffee and pastries) and Pat's BBQ.
​P.S. Bring your chairs! We'd love to see people relaxing with coffee and BBQ and taking in the music.

Hope to see you there!
