Even if the leaves and cherry blossoms are not quite as full as they usually are this time of year, the sight of artwork throughout Sturgeon Bay is a surefire sign the season has arrived in Door County.
Destination Sturgeon Bay’s 2026 public art installation sets sail this week, with 28 artist-inspired sailboats dotting city streets ahead of the Sturgeon Bay Fine Art Fair, which runs Saturday and Sunday. More than 80 artists will set up in Martin Park for their annual Memorial Day weekend residency, featuring sculptures, paintings, photography and other media for visitors to explore.
Destination Sturgeon Bay Executive Director Cameryn Ehlers-Kwaterski said the event is about more than just art, as organizers work to ensure there is something for everyone to enjoy.
The Sturgeon Bay Fine Art Fair runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. The “Set Sail” art installation will remain on display through September.
Ehlers-Kwaterski added that the Sturgeon Bay Fine Art Fair is the perfect warmup for the start of the Sturgeon Bay Farmers Market season on May 30.
