For the 50th year in a row, the Salado Chamber of Commerce/Tourism Bureau is proud to present its Annual Art Fair Aug. 6-7 in Pace Park.

Known statewide and throughout the country, the Salado Annual Art Fair has drawn tens of thousands of visitors over the years and is a staple in the quaint, historic and artistic Village of Salado. In honor of the 50th Anniversary, we are moving the Art Fair back to Pace Park, the original location. This allows a large walkable area for the many expected booths and vendors with the backdrop of the beautiful, flowing Salado Creek.  The first Art Fair was organized by Virginia Kinnison and Jack Jones, well-known and respected Saladoans during the summer of 1967 and continues to this day as a community effort.

There will be numerous juried artists and artisans covering a wide variety of artistic genres. Music will provide a colorful background for attendees to browse the many booths and vendors in Pace Park.  This provides a setting for the viewing of some of the most beautiful and unique artwork that is so much a part of this decades old event. Historic displays and children’s activities at Jack’s Barn, adjacent to Pace Park will also be available to enjoy.

There will be plenty of food and fun for all ages.

Hours are 10 am-5 p.m. on Aug. 6 and 10 a.m.-4 p.m. on Aug. 7. There is a $2 admission fee. Children 12 and under free.

Come be a part of a 50-year-strong art event that brings every age and walk of life to Salado.
