Peoria Art Guild

Founded in 1878, the Peoria Art Guild presents a diverse array of fine and contemporary art. We strive to inspire and educate all levels of art enthusiasts through the Fine Art Fair, exhibitions, outreach and collaborative art initiatives.

The Peoria Art Guild presents our largest event — the annual Fine Art Fair on Peoria's riverfront every fall (56th year in 2018). We utilize hundreds of volunteers to put on this event. The Kids' Art Festival at the fair provides make-and-take projects for hundreds of children. We also host numerous classes at the guild for children and adults, including ceramics and painting. The guild partners with Sculpture Walk to provide sculpture-related art projects for children. There are many different opportunities to get involved, and we hope you will!
