Art enthusiasts can choose from a variety of creative and original works of art from 15-plus mediums, such as sculpture, painting, digital, fiber, printmaking, mixed media, ceramics, photography, wood, glass, jewelry and metalwork.

Main Street is a juried art fair, which means that artists must submit their work to a panel of national and local judges before being selected to exhibit. Of the 1,345 applications received, 220 artists were selected to exhibit at the 2015 festival.
