The
Indianapolis Art Center has moved the dates of the Broad Ripple Art
Fair, our largest annual fundraiser. Since 1971, the Fair has grown to
include more than 225 national and international
artists with an expected two-day attendance of more than 26,000 people.
This annual festival brings the community and visitors from the Midwest
region together for a celebration of creativity and family fun. The
Art Fair is held on the landscaped grounds of the Indianapolis Art
Center's ARTSPARK and the North Side Optimists Opti-Park, on the northern border
of Broad Ripple Village. Proceeds from the Broad Ripple Art Fair benefit
the Indianapolis Art Center, a not-for-profit community arts organization.
