2025 Gold Coast Art Fair

Welcome to the 2025 Gold Coast Art Fair!

Now in its 67th year, the Gold Coast Art Fair returns to Chicago’s Grant Park on Saturday, June 7 and Sunday, June 8 from 10a-5p daily. This prestigious art fair features over 200 juried artists from across the country, offering a diverse range of original works in painting, sculpture, jewelry, ceramics, mixed media, and more. With thousands of visitors expected, the fair is the perfect place to find unique art pieces for your home, office, or collection.

Set in the heart of Chicago, between the Art Institute and Lake Michigan, the Gold Coast Art Fair offers an exciting atmosphere with live music throughout the weekend, and a variety of food, wine, beer, and sangria at three oases in Grant Park’s Butler Field. The fair also includes Paint and Sip classes, henna art, caricatures, personalized poems, and interactive art booths for kids. The Kids Art Zone is packed with fun activities, including face painting, sand art, giant bubbles, and more.

With convenient parking at the Millennium Parking Garage and easy access via public transportation, including loop trains and Michigan Avenue buses, the fair is accessible for everyone. The event is also wheelchair-friendly, and leashed dogs are welcome.

Tickets are $15, with $2 from each sale benefiting WINGS Program, Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to providing housing, integrated services, education, and advocacy to end domestic violence. Tickets can be purchased in advance or at the gate. Tickets are required for admission. Children 12 and under are free.

Attendees are encouraged to bring gently used wall art to donate to the Chicago Furniture Bank, a nonprofit providing furnishings and décor to individuals and families transitioning out of shelters into permanent housing.
