Geneva, a chic and charming historic town located on the Fox River, will celebrate its 16th annual Fine Arts Fair in 2018. Its prestigious reputation of offering a superb selection of fine art by renowned artists and cutting edge newcomers attracts beginning and avid art collectors. Presented by the Chamber of Commerce, the show is tucked among 100+ specialty shops located in Victorian-style homes and century-old buildings. Awards for 2d and 3d media, along with warm small-town hospitality, offer a picture-postcard setting for this juried art celebration.
NOTE: Prints, photography, digital art and computer generated art: Prints must be produced by traditional printmaking techniques. Giclee reproductions are allowed only in photography. Photography may be wet darkroom (chemicals) or digital darkroom. We define computer generated art as an art form created entirely with a computer. No reproductions on canvas allowed in any media.
