Art patrons come to enjoy this celebration of original fine art and contemporary crafts, talented local musicians, activities for kids, and specialty food items. For 49 years, a diverse group of potters, jewelers, painters, sculptors, photographers, glass artists, and more, have been displaying their artwork that the Commonwheel jury selects. These artists apply from the Pikes Peak Region, and neighboring states to share their creations with art-appreciating visitors at this juried art festival.
Being able to meet and talk with the artists at the art festival is part of the fun. It can spark a creative side in youngsters that could lead them to a career as an artist or just start a new hobby. There are many types of fine art and contemporary crafts that are affordable. Art patrons are enticed to buy something that they can enjoy for many years to come or begin collecting art for their homes. The fine jewelers offer items that make beautiful gifts, or for you to wear to express your own unique, personal style. Potters offer functional items for the kitchen and dining, plus amazing sculptures. Photographers capture beautiful scenes or create abstract images to entice your eyes. There are paintings in many styles, handmade clothing, plush toys and so much more to discover at the juried Art Festival.
