Saranac Lake ArtWorks is the creative heartbeat of the community, bringing artists, galleries, and visitors together through a vibrant lineup of events that showcase the best of local and regional talent. Throughout the year, their signature ArtWalks turn downtown Saranac Lake into an open-air gallery, where visitors can explore participating shops and studios, meet artists in person, and experience a wide range of artwork in a lively, walkable setting.

In addition to ArtWalks, ArtWorks helps organize and promote events like the Adirondack Plein Air Festival, where artists take to the outdoors to capture the landscape in real time, offering visitors the chance to watch the creative process unfold across scenic locations. They also host ArtMarkets, bringing together artists and makers in a dynamic, festival-style atmosphere where you can browse, shop, and connect with creators all in one place.

Seasonal studio tours, workshops, and special exhibitions further round out the experience, giving visitors even more ways to engage with art and the people behind it. Through these events, Saranac Lake ArtWorks creates meaningful opportunities to explore, connect, and celebrate the region’s artistic spirit.
