East Town Fine Art & Craft Festival

Milwaukee, WI – Grace’s Annual Fine Art & Craft Festival returns Sunday, Nov. 6, 2022, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. at the Grace Center. The festival, which is hosted by Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church, features a variety of fine artwork and handicrafts by local artists from around Milwaukee and the state of Wisconsin. “The Fine Art and Craft Festival provides a unique opportunity to make connections between downtown residents and great local artisans,” Rev. Brian Hackmann, who oversees community outreach at Grace, said in a statement when asked about the relevance of the festival, now in its 14th year. “It also provides an opportunity to make connections with a church that shares God’s love and serves downtown Milwaukee.” This year’s artisans feature work ranging from jewelry, candles, chocolates, woodwork, greeting cards, photography, children’s books, home décor and more! Attendees will be able to listen to live music, provided by MSOE students, while they shop. Grace Place Coffee, which is housed within the Grace Center, will be open for the duration of the event with coffee, specialty espresso drinks, and Hatched MKE hand pies available for purchase.
The first 100 guests will receive a reusable canvas tote for shopping. Guests will also have the opportunity to enter a raffle where they can win various pieces of artwork donated by this year’s artisans.
