2015 marks the 45th Anniversary for one of Southeast Michigan's classic art fairs.  Our artists and visitors enjoy the easy going atmosphere among the tree lined, grassy, rolling terrain of Memorial Park.

It is at the heart of one of the wealthiest counties in the US, Oakland County.  Royal Oak has become the hotspot for Southeast Michigan entertainment.
 
The Royal Oak Outdoor Art Fair is run like they were in the "old days":  quiet music, no sponsor booths, no buy/sell, run by and loved by the community--it is all about the art. If you are going to be in Ann Arbor the following week, give us a try. We think you'll be glad you did.
