About This Call
The Omaha Art Fair anticipates drawing an estimated 30,000 fair goers and art patrons from around the Omaha metro and regional area (population over 960,000). The fair is located in Omaha's Aksarben Village and Stinson Park. This 3-day fair features professional artwork, interactive art for fairgoers, festival food favorites, alcohol, music, and is FREE for patrons. The fair features up to 166 juried artisans from across the country in a variety of mediums, plus community sponsored interactive art that engages patrons with activities like a mural collage, numerous free children's art activities, and adult art activities.
The Omaha Art Fair is in its second year, organized and run by a board comprised of professional artists, community leaders, and event planning experts. Artist input following the 2025 OAF has been incorporated into the planning for the 2026 event. The fair does not accept applications for soap, candles, manufactured items or foods. Absolutely no resellers allowed. Applications are free and require 4 images including a booth shot. Emerging artists are accepted.
The fair runs June 12-14, 2026 (Friday 11am-9pm, Saturday 10am-9pm, Sunday 10am-4pm). Thirteen awards will be given to artists, with Best of Show, Best Artist and Best Display receiving a free 10x10 booth at the 2027 fair. Ten Honorable Mentions will receive cash prizes. Artist amenities include discounted hotel rates, artist hotline for booth sitters and emergencies, artist award breakfast on Saturday, free breakfast on Sunday, and 24-hour security officers.
