Established in 1960, the Ann Arbor Street Art Fair is the original of a collective of four concurrent and contiguous fairs that transform a 30 block area of Ann Arbor into a massive outdoor art gallery each July. This show features high quality,  contemporary fine arts and fine crafts. All work must be original. The Original takes place on the streets surrounding the historic Burton Carillon Tower and the tree-lined central campus of the University of Michigan.
