Woodstock Art Fair in the Square

By Amdur Productions / Blog

Hosted by the City of Woodstock and Real Woodstock, Amdur Productions is thrilled to announce a new art festival taking place on Saturday and Sunday, September 21 and 22 in the historic downtown Woodstock. Revered for its beautiful architecture, quaint shops and boutiques, and the world-renowned Woodstock Opera House, Woodstock is also known as the place where the beloved movie, Groundhog Day (starring Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell), was filmed. This month’s Woodstock Art Fair on the Square will bring even more people to experience all that downtown Woodstock has to offer!

Groundhog Day (1993)

Throughout the weekend, 75 juried artists from near and far will be showcasing and selling their work including paintings, jewelry, ceramics, functional art, sculptures, photography and more! Live music, artist demonstrations, booth chats, activities for kids including face painting, spin art, and sand sculpture, selfie stations, and the very popular “Start to Paint” on site painting classes add to the fun, family-friendly vibe of this event.

“This is our 41st season and my team and I are honored to produce a show in Woodstock,” said Amy Amdur, President of Amdur Productions, an award-winning event and art festival production company, known nationwide for producing many of the Midwest’s most respected and popular juried art shows. “The City of Woodstock is a wonderful and welcoming community,” she added. “We’re excited to be part of the energy that is Woodstock, and I know our artists are just as excited as we are!”

Woodstock Square

“Hosting the Woodstock Art Fair on the Square makes perfect sense for our city, given our strong focus on arts and culture,” explained Heather Arnold, Marketing & Communications Director for the City of Woodstock. “This event not only showcases the incredible talent of a wide variety of artists surrounding our community, but it also serves as an economic driver, attracting visitors and boosting local businesses,” she added. “Woodstock thrives on creativity and community, and this art fair embodies what our city is all about.”

In addition to the viewing and purchasing of art, guests are invited to bring their own gently used wall art to the festival where it will be donated to the Chicago Furniture Bank, a nonprofit organization that distributes furnishings and art to those leaving shelters and moving into permanent housing. Several artists from this show will also be supporting the Chicago Furniture Bank by participating in Amdur Productions’ Green Ribbon Project where artists place a green ribbon on a piece of art in their booth, and if the piece is sold, 10% of the sale will be donated back to the Furniture Bank.

“I think an art fair is truly one of the happiest places on earth and I am so excited for the Woodstock Art Fair on the Square,” added Anne Marie Whitmore Lenzini, Chair of the Woodstock Arts Commission, President of the Clayworkers’ Guild of Illinois and Manager of Woodstock’s Artisans on Main. “Woodstock and the fair will reinforce that this is a place where creativity is the norm, where everyone shares a love of art and music, and the only thing you have to worry about is which artist you want to see next, if it’s time to grab a bite to eat, jam to the music, or just people watch. All will be in abundance the weekend of September 21st and 22nd!”

Woodstock Art Fair on the Square is located in downtown Woodstock at 100 S. Johnson Street and is open from 10 am to 5 pm both days. Admission is free, there is plenty of free parking, and the festival grounds are wheel- friendly with access for wheelchairs and strollers. Dozens of restaurants, just steps away from the artists’ booths will ensure that no one goes hungry. Come make a day of it at the Woodstock Art Fair on the Square!
