See Local Illustration Artist at Ann Arbor Art Fair

Stephen Kade was inspired by the cartoons he watched as a child.

The 54th annual Ann Arbor Art Fair will feature 1,100 juried artists. One of those artists is Stephen Kade of Walled Lake. 

Kade, who is also a graphic artist and muralist, was fascinated by the characters and creatures from children's shows he watched as a kid. That developed into a love for art and drawing. 

Find him and his illustration art at booth D-294 at the Ann Arbor Art Fair.

The art fair is July 17 - 20 and includes four parts: Ann Arbor’s South University Art Fair; Ann Arbor Street Art Fair, the Original; Ann Arbor Summer Art Fair; and the State Street Area Art Fair. 

“Each year, it’s amazing to see the streets of Ann Arbor transformed into what is essentially a playground for art lovers,” said Karen Delhey, a spokeswoman for the Ann Arbor Art Fair.  “This year’s fair offers a unique mix of some of the best art from around the world, with many favorite returning artists, as well as a number of artists who will make their debut.”

The fair will have 2D and 3D-mixed media, drawing, painting, photography, printmaking, ceramics, fiber, glass, jewelry and works in metal, stone and wood.
