Many artists coming to For the Love of Art Fair are local or from Indiana and Michigan. But others are showing off their work from Illinois, Ohio, Wisconsin, Kentucky and Missouri.

The 2023 show brings a variety of mediums including pottery, woodwork, handcrafted jewelry, glass sculptures, fiber art and of course paintings.
