Michigan Arts Access created the Midtown Art Fair in 2022 as an example of our vision of an accessible society, where people with disabilities of all ages have equitable opportunities to participate in, learn through, excel in and enjoy the arts. This is also an inclusive event and will feature diverse artists, as well as artists from MiAA’s All Means All program for professional Michigan Artists with disabilities. Come out and celebrate the beautiful tapestry of Michigan’s creative community!
