The Cherokee Triangle Art Fair 2010

A Brief History Schedule

Sat & Sun, April 24th & 25th
(the weekend before Derby)

The Cherokee Triangle Art Fair
is one of the oldest and finest art fairs in the region. The fair got its start thirty-eight years ago when area residents started a garden plant exchange. Since then, it has gained high acclaim for the quality of the arts and crafts displayed by the exhibitors. There's plenty of great live music and entertainment and good food. The fair has also become well known as a family-friendly event featuring a children's art activity tent.
