Grand Cities Art Fest
The Grand Cities Art Fest is the upper Red River Valley's premiere arts festival and street fair, held during the second weekend each June in the twin cities of Grand Forks, North Dakota and East Grand Forks, Minnesota. The event includes over 150 artists and artisans, all juried into the show, two food courts with multiple food vendors, a children's area with arts & crafts and inflatable games, live entertainment on two stages, and more. Art Fest takes place in the neighboring downtown areas of the two cities and on the banks of the Red River of the North in the Greater Grand Forks Greenway. New to Art Fest?

The 2011 Grand Cities Art Fest dates are Saturday, June 11th from 10am-6pm and Sunday, June 12th from 10am-5pm.
