Up to 185 fine artist and artisans will display their works during this two-day event along a tree-lined lane overlooking the park. This event consistently ranks among the region’s top art events year after year, with great attention to every detail from helping customers to supporting artists.

Even the food is known as the most innovative at any southeastern art festival! “This is the ideal fall festival to enjoy the cooler weather, browse for irresistible holiday gifts and appreciate the majesty of Chastain Park, one of Atlanta’s true jewels,” says Patrick Dennis, President of the Atlanta Foundation for Public Spaces.

Visitors will enjoy fine art and crafts, a children’s area and local food and beverage concessions including the “gourmet” food trucks. Local acoustic musicians will enliven the elegant atmosphere. This event is organized by the Atlanta Foundation for Public Spaces and volunteer artists.

Free.
