The 27th Annual ArtWorks of Eau Gallie Fine Arts Festival will be on November 18, 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. and on November 19, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. Always held the weekend before Thanksgiving, ArtWorks takes place along Highland Avenue in Melbourne’s Eau Gallie Arts District. This is three blocks east of U.S. 1 at the intersection of Highland Ave. and Eau Gallie Blvd. (SR 518).

ArtWorks features 80 juried artists. Art mediums include painting, drawing, digital art, photography, sculpture, ceramics, jewelry, and others. ArtWorks is the only show of its kind in Brevard County. What makes ArtWorks unique is the emphasis on art demonstrations. ArtWorks, like other art shows, is a place where artists sell their original art. At ArtWorks, artists will also be creating new artworks in their booths. ArtWorks is an opportunity to see how art comes together.

Brevard high school artists also participate in ArtWorks. They will be displaying their art; and they will be creating new works of art during the show. The high school artists will be on St. Clair Street. Hands-on art activities for kids of all ages will be on Highland Ave.

The Brevard Porcelain Artists annual “Touch of Elegance” show and sale and the Authors for Authors “Meet the Authors” Book Fair will be in the Eau Gallie Civic Center. There will be live music and a food court in Eau Gallie Square. No pets please at ArtWorks.
