About this festival

Visitors to Custer's Last Stand are happy to be there. Smiles greet you wherever you go. From the historic Main St. and Chicago Ave. store buildings to the tree lined Washington St. residential area you can find places to please. 350 Artists and craftspeople from across the nation come together on the third weekend of June every year to exhibit and sell paintings, ceramics, pottery, photographs, jewelry, graphic arts, wearable art, country and home craft, antiques and collectables. They are joined by 150 local businesses and commercial exhibitors who put on an old fashioned Sidewalk Sale. Over 30 food vendors offer a full international menu featuring the old favorites as well as new fare. All reasonably priced. Come to the fair. See old friends and make new friends. As the Chicago Sun-Times says, come and .."Romp-Stomp and Shop at Custer's Last Stand." While visiting Main Street Station Shopping District and the Custer Fair be sure to check out the theatre offerings of the Piccolo Theatre. The Piccolo Theatre perfoms in their intimate theatre in the Evanston Arts Depot.
