2026 Glenwood Avenue Arts Fest

The Glenwood Avenue Arts Fest (GAAF) is an annual community event in the Rogers Park neighborhood showcasing the work of over 130 artists and more than two dozen music and dance performances, as well as live arts demonstrations, an activities area for kids, and open studios. Attendees can browse and buy artwork from local and visiting artists spanning all genres, from traditional woodworking and ceramics to digital drawing and avant-garde mixed media.

This free, weekend-long event takes place on the cobblestone streets of the Glenwood Avenue Arts District at the intersection of Morse and Glenwood avenues, steps from the Morse CTA Red Line stop. The event features food from local eateries alongside art, music, dance, and live demonstrations.

Artist booth applications for 2026 will open on March 15, 2026.
