Art on the Grand will gain exposure to over 40,000 shoppers in a community that
vigorously promotes and supports the arts. Artists will enjoy courtesy booth sitters
for breaks, and complimentary coffee, water, and refreshments. Additionally,
many local restaurants will deliver meals directly to artist booths.

Fine artists and crafters from around the country are featured with booths
showcasing a variety of disciplines and price ranges. Different artistic categories
include painting, pottery, photography, jewelry, mixed media, wood, wearable
art, glass, leather, sculpture, and more.

All artwork must be handmade by the applying artist. No kits, molds, mass-
produced or resale items are allowed. Prints of original work are allowed. The 11
x 11 foot artist booth fee is $275 for both days. A $500 award for “Best of Show”
and two honorary “Mayor’s Awards” are given out each year.

Department’s Cultural Arts Division and the Farmington Downtown Development
Authority.
