About the Fair
The Royal Oak Outdoor Art Fair is a juried Fine Art Fair that has been active in our community for over half a century. This is a non-profit collaboration, 100% of the money raised from the fair goes to support community programs.
The art fair is held in a beautiful tree-lined setting at Royal Oak’s Memorial Park, located in a high traffic location at the corner of 13 Mile Road and Woodward Avenue.
Our event features live music, a variety food trucks, live artist demonstrations and family activities through the weekend.
The art fair is a collaboration between the Royal Oak Arts Council and the Royal Oak Recreation Department. Proceeds of the art fair fund college scholarships for Royal Oak high school seniors, local art programs, fine and performing art organizations and the Royal Oak Recreation Department.
