St. James Court Art Fair and St. James UnFair

I'm sure everybody and their brother remembers that this weekend is St. James weekend. If not, consider this your reminer.

When you head down for the gigantic art extravaganza make sure to head by the Mag Bar for the St. James UnFair.

What is the St. James Unfair?

About 8 years ago (about 10 years ago now), artists Paul Harshaw, Greg Edwards and the owner of the Mag Bar, David Norton got together and decided they wanted to make a statement. They had watched the St. James Court Art Show turn from what it originally was, a place where local artists could display and sell their work into this 9 square block festival where no struggling artist can afford to have their own space.

The St. James Court Art Show is good for the community and the city but its not as good as it could be. Instead of a showcase of art its a craft show with a few artists scattered around the fair.

Our goal is to support local artists and give them a chance to show their work to the biggest audience any of them will probably get this year.
