The Racine Arts Council is excited to announce, Fine Art Fair, Ballyhoo at the Zoo June 4-5, 2022. Formerly the Monument Square Art Festival (MSAF), we will continue to present one of Wisconsin's oldest and most respected juried fine art fairs, presenting 40 - 60 artists from around the country exhibiting works in a variety of media. Ballyhoo at the Zoo will take place at Racine’s premier N. Main St. location, the Racine Zoo on beautiful Lake Michigan.

Not only does this location give us additional space we need to present a safer event, it connects the art fair to one of Racine’s most popular and well-visited attractions.The Racine Zoo offers large grassy areas for booth space with a lovely view of Lake Michigan and wide walkways that allow socially distanced setup for artists and visiting patrons.
