Austin Avenue Art Fair, Waco

Lifting up artists is the aim of the Austin Avenue Art Fair. On November 1-3, Waco will host an event that brings together artists, musicians, local businesses, and the community for a truly special event. We seek to cultivate community, enrich our local culture, attract visitors, and grow retail vibrancy in downtown Waco, while supporting local artists and musicians. www.austinavenueartfair.com

Art evokes something in us, often unexplainable, but also quite wonderful. An art piece can be a reflection of ourselves. When we have art in our lives, our lives are fuller, richer, and better.

October 2023 was the first, of hopefully many Austin Avenue Art Fairs. An idea of Waco artist Wendy Michelle Davis. Wendy saw an opportunity to showcase artists in her city and decided to act. As a full-time painter who is always looking for ways to show her work, she understands the need for artists to support artists, and how incredible it can be when we come together to share what we create.

This art will showcase artists with their art displayed in booths, while local musicians are performing and local artists are creating. This year we're expanding to include a downtown art walk and dueling artists. A delight for the senses! It's an event locals and visitors will not want to miss. We hope you can join us this fall.

This event takes a lot of resources to bring together. If you love the arts, and music, or simply believe in the vitality of Waco's retail district, we ask you to join us in funding this joyous celebration of art and music.
