Great stuff has been happening at #AlkiArtFairatHome - a Virtual Art Fair throughout the month of May by Alki Art Fair. There is something new everyday.
Tune in to Facebook and Instagram for artist spotlights, studio tours, live performances, creative tutorials and more! The fair features local artists, performers and businesses, most of whom were set to be part of the 2020 Alki Art Fair at the end of July that is now cancelled due to COViD-19.
These gifted artists are participating in this virtual fair to bring a bright spot, and hopefully some beauty and inspiration, to your day.
You can lend your support to our local community of artists by raising awareness about their art and music on social media - watch, follow, like, share, engage with them. And, if you are able to, donate or make a purchase. Until fairs, festivals, touring, and house concerts come back, artists need our support virtually. So join the fair. You can still experience happenings from earlier this month, and what's yet to come. Here's just a few of the postings.
