The Uptown Art Fair
The Uptown Art Fair is the second most popular festival and is only beat out by the Minnesota State Fair.
The fair began in 1964 as a way to increase awareness of the arts while raising money for Uptown projects. Although the event has grown and changed over the years, its core mission remains the same. Each year, much of the proceeds from the fair are returned directly to the community to enhance numerous programs and activities.
