The Arts for Everyone! Our differences make us stronger and inspire us to make art even more engaging, inspiring, and stimulating. Stop by the festival and see what moves you!
Established in 1992, the Mosaics Fine Art Festival Association was established to create and foster diversity and vitality of the arts and to broaden the availability, education, participation and appreciation of the arts throughout the community through the formulation of an Art Festival.
We present a professional exhibition to show case the local and regional artists, while also stimulating and educating the community. The Mosaics Fine Art Festival has an interesting diversity of artwork produced by a mix of emerging, mid-career and established artists in all media.
Mosaics is unique in its approach to educating children and adults in how art can enhance their lives. To the community, our program offers cultural advantages and great places for families to live, learn, and play, free of charge.
The Mosaics Fine Art Festival concentrates on high-quality art, education, and community involvement opportunities. Over the past 3 decades, Mosaics continues to grow as the premier professional arts festival held in St. Charles County and is a registered nonprofit 501 c (3) status organization with the State of Missouri
Run completely by volunteers, we hope that you'll join us on historic Main Street for our 30th anniversary this September.

No. We do have a hot dog truck and a couple of bars with drinks, but aside from those, we like to support the many restaurants along Main Street. For a listing of restaurants: https://www.discoverstcharles.com/restaurants/?view=grid&sort=qualityScore&bounds=false&filter_regions%5B0%5D=5

No. While we do have some artists that apply every year and are juried in, we have many new artists each year that apply. Since we have far more applicants that we can admit into the festival, and we have different individuals in our jury each year, different artists are selected every year.
No. Of course some of the larger, original pieces can be expensive, but we aim to include artists that have pieces in a variety of styles and price ranges so that there is something for everyone.
