Smooth Jazz At Sunset provides "A" list performers the Saturday evening of the Krasl Art Fair weekend. These Smooth Jazz artists don't play your average jazz, but a mix of POP, Jazz, Latin and Urban grooves that both create a relaxing mood and moments where you want to get out of your seat and dance.
With the back drop of Silver Beach, you'll not only enjoy great music, but terrific scenery along with sailboats meandering up and down the river flowing right beside the stage.
Plenty of food and drink (including adult beverages) are available at the show. It's a perfect night for those that both want something upbeat and energetic as well as groovy and romantic. We hope to see you there!
2012 Artist: Nelson Rangell, Saxophonist & Flutist

St. Joseph Presents Krasl Art Fair on the Bluff
Lake Bluff Park , Downtown St. Joseph
The 50th Annual Krasl Art Fair, presented by Schu's Grill & Bar, is the host of one of the premier art fairs in the country. Music and entertainment will be provided all day long while you browse more than 200 artist vendors. For more information call 269-983-0271 or www.krasl.org.
Dates of event: Saturday and Sunday, July 9 and 10, 2011, 10:00AM to
6:00PM on Saturday, and 10:00AM to 5:00PM on Sunday
St. Joseph, MI - The 50th Anniversary of the Art Fair on the Bluff will open with a “Townie Party” on Friday, July 8. The community is invited to attend. The Art Fair will be Saturday and Sunday, July 9 and July 10, 2011, in downtown St. Joseph, Michigan.
In 1962 a group of local artists met to plan and implement the first art fair. 90 artists and craftsman displayed their art, some hanging their paintings on a clothesline. The purpose of the art fair, which has not changed in 50 years, was to sell art. The Krasl Art Center wants to thank all of those pioneers of the art fair for their vision, perseverance, creative energy, and hard work. Because of their efforts, we have a valued tradition not only in Michigan, but around the country. The Krasl Art Fair is recognized as one of the top art fairs in the country and rated 25th in the nation in Sunshine Artist Magazine and 58th in Art Fair Sourcebook this year.
In celebration of the 50th year:
• We are proud to announce Schu’s Grill & Bar as our title sponsor. They will have a tent on Lake Blvd. serving lunch and dinner Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of art fair weekend complete with live entertainment in the evenings.
• The 50 years of Art on the Bluff exhibition at the Krasl Art Center. This special exhibition features art purchased from the Krasl Art Fair the past 49 years. The exhibition includes panels depicting the five decades of the Art Fair. A quilt created by the Berrien Town and Country Quilt Guild with scenes from St. Joseph is a part of this exhibition. The opening for this exhibition Friday, June 10 from 5:30-7:30PM is free and open to the public. Sponsored by Chemical Bank, the exhibition runs from June 10-July 31, 2011.
• Lecture “Original Art at Any Price” on Thursday, June 30, 7PM by Chicago artist Mimi Dramauer, who is an award winning Krasl Art Fair fiber artist. Mimi is a full time fiber artist whose work has been featured across the nation in galleries and art fairs as well as Crate and Barrel product lines. Join Mimi as she dispels myths about the costs and connoisseurship required for collecting and gives tips on how to start merging art into your home now.
• The Krasl Art Center celebrates the 50th Art Fair on the Bluff starting with the Friday Night Kick-Off Party July 8, 5-10PM.

ST JOE KRASL ART FAIR
Date: Saturday & Sunday, July 10 & 11,2010

Category: Surrounding Area Events - South Haven to Saugatuck
Here are the details:
Best Artists, Best Sales" is the commitment of the art fair committee as we prepare for the 49th annual Krasl Art Fair on the Bluff to be held on July 10 and 11, 2010 come rain or shine.
We are once again excited to have the top 216 artists line the bluff and have art lovers intrigued and delighted to see amazing art. The venue, atop the bluff of Silver Beach, provides one of the most spectacular views of Lake Michigan coupled with the high quality of artists, truly earns the Krasl Art Fair on the Bluff its status as one of the top 100 art fairs in the nation. The country's troubling economy poses a challenge for all of us this year, including the artists, whose livelihoods are based on local art fairs. Recognizing this challenge to not only our 216 artists, but our buying public, we encourage the artists to offer various price points of $25.00-$50.00 among their work.
Sunshine Artist Magazine consistently ranks the Krasl Art Fair on the Bluff in the top 200 fine art and design shows nationally, and in 2009 we were ranked #30 out of the top 100. We are also included in the top 180 art fairs on the Harris List of fine art/fine craft fairs!
The Krasl Art Fair on the Bluff attracts crowds of 70,000! But if you are visiting from out of town, no worries! There are ample hotels, motels and bed & breakfasts in the area plus shopping in St. Joseph's quaint downtown as well as Benton Harbor. Come join us for a relaxing, fun weekend, where you are sure to find the art you are seeking!
