Celebrating 26 years of bringing art, culture, and community together! Nationally ranked in the Top 100 Fine Art Festivals by Sunshine Artist Magazine for 10 years running, this annual two-day festival draws tens of thousands of people from the Big Bend Southeast region to experience the fun and enjoy artists who travel from across the country to showcase their original work.
Visitors can view and purchase unique works of fine art from over 150 national juried artists in a delightful Southern outdoor setting, while enjoying a weekend filled with live 3-D street art, live entertainment by local bands and performing arts groups, children’s art activities, family fun, local heritage re-enactments, and delicious local food, craft beer, and cocktails.
The Festival is a beloved regional celebration of fine art and culture, and it plays a vital role in supporting LeMoyne Arts’ year-round programming and educational offerings, a non-profit art center serving our community since 1963.
