Missouri ArtSafe Pledge – Updated 6/21/21

The 30th annual Saint Louis Art Fair is taking place on the streets of downtown Clayton, Missouri on September 8th, 9th, and 10th, 2023. With the repeal of restrictions due to COVID-19 in St. Louis County, the Art Fair will continue to be free and open to the public.

But we will ask for our community’s help and patience while we implement new Health and Safety measures to ensure a successful Saint Louis Art Fair presented by Centene Charitable Foundation. All are welcome, but we encourage volunteers and guests who are not vaccinated or high-risk to consider their own safety when choosing to volunteer and/or attend.

Some changes you will see:

Artist Booth “Pods”

• Exhibiting Artists will be grouped into “pods” of four booths
• “Pods” will be separated by a minimum of ten feet

We will forgo the Artists Hospitality area and instead deliver prepackaged meals to our artists

Creative Castle

• Our children’s area will feature “grab and go” activities for kids and their families

Cashless Payments

• Beverage and Merchandise Booths will be cashless

Health & Safety Team

• Led by Dr. Stacey Tull, our Health & Safety Team will advise staff on current CDC guidelines
• Health & Safety Team members will be on site to ensure best practices

Masks

• Staff, vendors, volunteers, and attendees that are unvaccinated are asked to wear masks while at the festival
