About the Celebrate Art in Fayetteville Program
Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce started this program in 2016 to support art and to grow the creative economy in Fayetteville. The Program showcases 4 local artisans each quarter. Their artwork is for sale and 100% of the proceeds go back to the artist. There is not a fee to exhibit in the Chamber Art Gallery.
In addition, the Celebrate Art in Fayetteville Program encourages local businesses to support local artistes by showcasing their work in their business premises or having them commissioned work from the artists. This program supports the City’s Fayetteville First Strategic Plan by being a part of the Downtown Art Program and supports the sales of artwork or lessons by local creative professionals.
