2026 FAIR ARTISTS

My home of 26 years.

It's part of my life, I attend the Deep Ellum Outdoor Market every weekend. I love Deep Ellum, I've met a lot of people there and been influenced by a lot of artists.

Deep ellum is the place where I found community after moving to dallas during covid. Me and my artwork seem to fit in and it's been a community I'm growing to appreciate more and more.

Texas is my birth state and I love coming back home. My hubby is also an artist and we live in Arkansas. We have totally enjoyed coming back home and participating in the Deep Ellum Arts Festival...we have received so much support from everyone and the show is always a huge success for both of us.

Deep Ellum is rich in live music. Live music as well as the stories the artists tell are our inspiration.

Deep Ellum means a lot to us. We have been artists at the Deep Ellum Arts Festival for over 12 years, so since we are locals, we have experienced the evolution and growth of such an amazing area, and every year we have experienced such huge support to our work by patrons who live and enjoy the area, so we are exited to be part of your event!

I have heard wonderful things about Deep Ellum from other artists and feel it's a great fit for me and my work.

Deep Ellum is the heart of the art scene for the DFW area, and particularly for Dallas.

Deep Ellum will always be home and a huge part of my life and livelihood

Deep Ellum is a rich artistic community that supported the arts and art culture. It especially aids in the promotion of regional artists. The community comes out to support creativity!

Deep Ellum is one of our most essential neighborhoods in Dallas. Of course, I spent my college years catching both national and local bands in Trees, Club Clearview, The Bomb Factory, and Curtain Club. And I still occasionally try to get down to see a show.

It is exciting to be in this aria of Dallas and a great opportunity to exhibit my art during one of the most popular art festivals and Texas. It is the opportunity to be with other local artists and meet many new people. The entire atmosphere with so many different kind of art, music and people everything is inspiring.

Deep Ellum is the part of Dallas I fell in love with. After living in the burbs, I met my husband, who introduced me to the music scene in Deep Ellum back in 2002. It reminded me of New York, where I studied art at Pratt Institute. Eclectic and wonderful.

It was my first ever show in Dallas where I found an amazing and engaging artistic community.

Community and support of all things i love
