Welcome to Paris Art Fair, where we celebrate the creative spirit that lives in our community—Paris, Texas, named after the art capital of the world. We believe our town deserves to honor that legacy every day. Originally established in 1961, the Paris Art Fair was a beloved tradition in our community for many years before it came to an end. Now, we're bringing it back. Our mission is simple: to bring art to life in Paris through exhibitions, events, and experiences that invite everyone to participate. Operating under the umbrella of the Paris Area Arts Alliance, the Art Fair Committee is made up entirely of volunteers, mostly artists themselves, who are passionate about sharing the joy and power of creativity with our neighbors. When you attend the Paris Art Fair, you'll discover something for everyone—from our juried art show featuring talented artists from across the region to art booths where you can purchase unique, original works to take home. Art has a unique magic—it connects us, inspires us, and reminds us of what's possible. We're here to share that magic with you.
