The WSAF has been a staple of Ludington summers for over 50 years and has recently been rated by Sunshine Artist Magazine in the magazine’s annual 200 Best List. Out of thousands of fairs in the nation, West Shore Art Fair commanded an impressive rank as 94 in the Fine Art and Design category. This recognition is just one more reason to put a trip to Ludington on your July bucket list.
The West Shore Art Fair is sponsored by the Ludington Area Center for the Arts and is a juried fine arts and crafts show which means a more stringent criteria is used and only the highest-quality artists are admitted. Awards are given to artists in various mediums by LACA.
Artists across a variety of media display their wares, including: clay, fiber, glass, jewelry, metal, painting, photography, sculpture, and more. In addition to the artists’ exhibit booths, the fair features live musical performances, food stations, a children’s activity area, and a booth where children can purchase art for just $5.
