2024 FAIR ARTISTS

I love the deep elm area, I lived there for over a year.. the diversity, the culture, for food and lack of feeling judged and being able to express your creativity in your community is important.

Deep ellum is my favorite place in all of Texas. It has become what Austin wishes it could be, you can walk three steps without finding something interesting to experience whether it's food, music, or just making a connection.

I am Deep Ellum.

Deep Elum has always been a community that has been endeared to me. The community itself holds such a beautiful spectrum of people from the multi-millionaire to the unsheltered trying to make it through the day and the artistic expression that synonymous with Deep Elum appropriately represents her people and their vibrant enthusiasm that is uniquely Dallas. Deep Elum is an institution that has remained both progressive and timeless.

Deep Ellum has always been a hub for art, music and culture not only for the greater DFW area but it has been that institution for me swell. I began to haunt deep plum in the early 90s and have had the pleasure of falling in love with the diverse spectrum of people that call this area home. Deep Ellum has and will continue to be what I consider my home town art district in spite of how much Dallas grows and evolves it will always be the home of those who live differently in the margins Deep Ellum is the same kind of different as me.

Deep Ellum has always been the hub of artistic creativity for DFW and that buzz and community is what draws me to this show. The culture and history is so enriching and encouraging to me as a new artist.

Deep Ellum is HOME 🙂

Deep Ellum arts festival is the place I started my art career. My first ever art show was in Deep Ellum and it gave me the confidence to continue as an artist in this extremely hard industry

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.

The town/city of Deep Ellum means (to me) a great sense of hand made, punk-rock, colorful, do it yourself art community with deep roots of a do it yourself funky style.

A hub for a wide and celebrated variety of arts and entertainment!

Deep Ellum is our community its our life. we have worked with this festival for years and would like the opportunity to shine as artists
