GREEN LAKE – Visitors to Green Lake will have the chance to explore a vibrant mix of art, music and local flavors at the 53rd annual Green Lake Fine Art Show, according to a community announcement.
Set for Aug. 8-9, the outdoor event will be held at the Town Square Community Center campus in downtown Green Lake. Organizers say this year’s show will be the largest in its history, featuring more than 100 artists from across Wisconsin and the Midwest.
More than 100 artists head to the Green Lake Fine Art Show August 8–9, featuring live music, food, and a full weekend of summer events.
The weekend invites guests to stroll through artist booths, meet creators and discover original works ranging from paintings and sculpture to jewelry, ceramics, photography and more — all set against the scenic backdrop of Wisconsin’s deepest natural lake.
Youth art, live music and local food planned
The show will also celebrate young talent through its Youth Art Zone and Youth Art Showcase, where emerging artists can share their work in a hands-on creative space.
Live music and local food vendors are expected to add to the festive atmosphere, and visitors can explore downtown Green Lake or enjoy other events happening that weekend, including the Green Lake County Fair and the Taste and Tunes Green Lake Wine Walk.
Organizers expecting largest show yet
“Each year, the Fine Art Show continues to grow, and 2026 is shaping up to be something truly special,” said Jina Quade, event coordinator at Town Square. “With more artists than ever before, it’s an incredible opportunity for visitors to experience high-quality work and connect directly with the people who create it.”
The event is planned to run from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Aug. 8 and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Aug. 9.
