We are sad to say that we have cancelled the Victoria Fine Art Fair for 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are brainstorming and working creatively to come up with additional ways to fulfill our mission of bringing the arts to Carver County. If you’d like to help us reinvent how we spread the love and appreciation for art, please consider becoming a Volunteer! Fill out the form on our Volunteer page. Thank you and be safe!
Victoria Fine Art Fair
The Arts Consortium of Carver County invites you to join us for our 3rd annual Victoria Fine Art Fair! This year we have a French theme complete with French Wine, Food and of course the Eiffel Tower. Our French themed Art Fair is held in conjunction with the German Volksfest in Victoria, bringing us together like the Rhine River! Enjoy music, sample fine French wines, French food and pastries and explore the fine art for sale in this lovely lakeside setting in Victoria. Nearby cafes and restaurants will be open as well as specialty food trucks. Guests will walk along the park overlooking scenic Stieger Lake and shop for the most unique treasures, gifts and displays of fine art.
We will have pottery, leather goods, jewelry, oil paintings, and more!
