Children’s Art Gallery
Building the next generation of art appreciators and collectors, this ticketed - children only - art gallery on fair grounds features donated works from participating artists at the Edwardsville Art Fair. Participating children will have the opportunity to chose their own favorite artwork allowing them the experience of developing their eye for art while encouraging confidence and ownership over their very own collection. Proceeds from the gallery fund the Edwardsville Arts Center’s Free Saturday Kids Classes.
