Whitefish Bay Art Fest 2026

Amdur Productions proudly returns to the streets of Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin for the 7th Annual Whitefish Bay Art Fest. The festival takes place in the downtown area along a vibrant tree-lined street nestled amongst popular cafés, boutiques, and salons. Whitefish Bay is an affluent village just 8 miles north of Milwaukee, similar to the North Shore of Chicago with large homes including many lake front estates. The village has a population of nearly 15,000 with almost 40% earning incomes over $150,000 annually.

The festival features about 100 exhibitor spaces with artist sales kept entirely by the artists. Amdur Productions staff is present throughout the entire festival to assist artists from load-in to load-out, with booth sitting services available. Artists receive close day parking at no additional cost, and Friday evening and Saturday morning load-in is available with drive-up access to booth spaces. Equipment rental including tents, weights, tables, and chairs is available for fees, along with limited pro-panel walls on a first-come basis.

All artwork must be original, created and made by the accepted artist or under their direct supervision. Artists may apply in multiple categories but not twice in the same category. White tents are required, and spaces are typically 12' wide by 10' deep. The festival includes awards, overnight security, and a comprehensive marketing campaign with digital advertisements, radio, posters, street banners, social media, and direct mail postcards.
