The Uptown Art Fair, now celebrating its 57th year, takes over the commercial district in Uptown Minneapolis. What began as a neighborhood art sale just down the block from what is now Seven Points Uptown has now developed into a nationally recognized event. Hosting 340 artists, the Uptown Art Fair caters to tourists, art enthusiasts, artists, and festival-goers from around the country, and is the major fundraiser for the U­­ptown Association.
