Meet the Artists-Frisco (MTA) is a juried art festival held in conjunction with the Town of Frisco's annual Fallfest event on September 10th & 11th, 2016. The festival features artist booths throughout the Frisco Historical Park on Main Street, along with a "Taste of Frisco" food tent, live music on Saturday, and all-day performances by local singer/songwriters in the Historic Park Gazebo on Sunday. Beer and wine sales are available both days.

Eligibility: Artists must be Colorado residents. All work must be original and produced directly by the artist. Attendance by the artist is required both days of the event.
