Consistently ranked as one of the top Fine Art and Contemporary Craft Shows in the country, the St. James Court Art Show attracts 250,000 visitors annually from all across the nation who come to purchase unique handcrafted items directly from the hands that crafted them. Held annually on the first full weekend of October, the St. James Court Art Show has been running continuously since 1957.

The art show is produced by a consortium of 5 neighborhood groups and a church. Each section is responsible for its own exhibit space/exhibitors, which total approximately 600 artists spread over four blocks. Each section uses a juried selection process in selecting artists to participate. You may apply to any or all of the sections (applications are not shared between groups); however, participation is limited to one section.
