2025 RICHLAND ART FAIR
Presented by the Gull Lake Area Community Volunteers

The Gull Lake Area Community Volunteers announce the 51st Richland Art Fair on Saturday, July 19, 2025 from 9am to 4pm located at Gull Meadow Farms (GMF), 8544 Gull Road, Richland, MI. This Art Fair started out in our village town square 51 years ago with less than 50 Artists but has grown to last year having 110 Artists.  This one day outdoor fair will feature a variety of original fine artwork and original fine handcrafts.

All proceeds from the event will fund several of our programs, providing educational, medical, dental, and emergency funds to aid and support individuals who reside in the Gull Lake Community School district.

Food will be available to purchase on site for lunch. 

Entrance and parking are free.

This event is co-hosted with Gull Meadow Farms (GMF) providing us their space for the day. GMF’s market WILL BE open. Fresh GMF’s donuts available! Their children’s activities WILL NOT be open during the fair.
