Why “Beaux Arts”?
“Beaux Arts” is a French term for fine arts and is pronounced bO-zär' or bO-zar'.
Why "Bizarre?"
Here's what Mr. Webster has to say: bi•zarre: strikingly out of the ordinary: a: odd, extravagant, or eccentric in style or mode b: involving sensational contrasts or incongruities Synonym see FANTASTIC.
That's the quintessential description of what you'd find at the Beaux Arts Bizarre!
This three-day event will bring local and regional artists to the beautiful Missouri Theatre Center for the Arts to exhibit and sell their ceramics, jewelry, textiles, woodworking, paintings, photography, scents, soaps, and other unusual handmade items in a variety of media.
Stroll through the beautifully-restored theater and take in the festive atmosphere while you meet the artists who make our mid-Missouri arts community one of the best and most vibrant in the Midwest.
