The Phyllis Olson Art Fair is an annual fine arts fair operated by Up North Arts, Inc. located in Cadillac Michigan. Since 1968, the show was directed by the Cadillac Area Artists Association, led in part, by Phyllis Olson until her passing in 2012. In 2019, Up North Arts took over the operations of the art fair and it has become one of our signature fundraisers of the year.
