St. James Court Art Show

About

Running since 1957, the St. James Court Art Show is a juried fine art and contemporary craft fair held annually the first full weekend of October across four blocks in Old Louisville. Around 600 artists exhibit across six separately-juried sections—each with its own application and selection process. The show draws 250,000 visitors nationally and has been consistently ranked among the top 10 art shows in the nation by Sunshine Artist Magazine. You may apply to multiple sections, but can only participate in one per year. General liability insurance is required; 6% Kentucky sales tax applies to all sales.
