Art on the Green

Art on the Green is one of North Idaho's premier fine art festivals, held on the scenic North Idaho College campus overlooking Lake Coeur d'Alene. This juried show brings together artists from across the region for three days of high-quality art in a beautiful outdoor setting.

What Makes This Different

Unlike a general craft fair, Art on the Green is a juried event — artists apply and are selected based on the quality of their work. That means everything you see here meets a higher bar, and you're more likely to find truly original, gallery-quality pieces.

What to Expect

• Fine art in a variety of media — painting, sculpture, pottery, glass, metalwork, and more
• Live music throughout the weekend
• Food vendors offering a wide range of options
• Beautiful campus setting with lake views and grassy areas to relax

Happening Alongside the Street Fair

Art on the Green runs the same weekend as the Downtown CdA Street Fair, making it an incredible weekend for art and culture in Coeur d'Alene. The NIC campus is just a short drive from downtown, so you can easily visit both.

About the Venue

North Idaho College sits on the shores of Lake Coeur d'Alene, and the campus grounds are genuinely beautiful. The festival takes advantage of the open green spaces and mature trees, creating a park-like atmosphere that's a welcome change from indoor convention halls.
