Somerville Art Fair | August Art Salon

SAF Art Salon at Bow Market: a relaxed evening to meet local artists, explore original artwork, and connect with our creative community

Join us for an evening of art, conversation, and community at the second SAF Art Salon of the year, hosted Upstairs at Bow Market.

The Art Salon is designed to bring artists and the Somerville community together in a relaxed, welcoming environment. Throughout the evening, guests can explore a curated selection of original artwork, meet the artists behind the work, and learn more about their creative process.

Unlike a traditional gallery show, the salon format encourages conversation. Visitors are invited to ask questions, hear the stories behind the work, and connect directly with local artists. All artwork on display will be available for purchase, making this a great opportunity to discover and collect original art from emerging artists in the area.

The Somerville Art Fair was created to help make original art more accessible to the local community while supporting artists in building sustainable creative practices. By connecting artists and collectors directly, the event creates a space where art can move beyond the gallery wall and into homes and businesses throughout Somerville.

Whether you're an experienced collector, a curious art lover, or simply looking for a unique night out in the neighborhood, the SAF Art Salon offers a chance to engage with art in an approachable and community-centered setting.

What to expect:

• A curated group of local artists showcasing their work
• Opportunities to meet and talk with the artists
• Artwork available for purchase
• A casual, social atmosphere for exploring art and ideas

Come spend the evening discovering new artists and connecting with Somerville’s creative community.
