Families gather at the annual Mountain Brook Art Association Show on the athletic fields at Crestline Elementary.
What began as a handful of local artists gathering together to show and sell their work has grown into a day-long event featuring artists from a 50-mile radius.
The Mountain Brook Art Association will hold its 31st Annual Art Show on April 21 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the athletic field at Crestline Elementary School.
This year more than 65 tents will be strewn across the spacious green field in Crestline. Artists of all ages and experiences will be displaying and selling their artwork at all price ranges.
“It’s a place [for artists] to put their work out and get their feet wet a little bit, people start here and go onto professional careers but still come back,” Show Chairman Gayle Hurley said.
In addition to the art, the event will feature lunch vendors, ice cream and, new this year, live music from the Mountain Brook High School Jazz Ensemble.
The Art Show is a great way for residents to support the local art community while spending a spring day with family and friends.

This year's show will feature local artists including Viki Denaburg, Lynn Briggs, Mary Mellen, and Barclay Gresham.
