The 45th Annual Art Fair & Winefest returns to historic Downtown Washington May 15–17, 2026, bringing a full weekend of wine, art, food, and live entertainment to the heart of Missouri wine country. This beloved spring tradition draws visitors from across the Midwest to enjoy local flavors, talented artists, and the charm of downtown Washington.
