The Lincoln Roscoe Art and Craft Fair returns to Lincoln Avenue on Chicago's north side, near Lakeview, Roscoe Village, and the Southport Corridor. This urban outdoor festival on closed city streets welcomes all media of art and original craft, including home goods and upcycled items. The diverse neighborhood includes young professionals, city dwellers, and families with a median income of $115,878, with 52.7% earning over $100,000 and 48% of adult residents holding a bachelor's or graduate degree.
