Spring and the Fairhope Arts and Crafts Festival March 16-18. It Doesn’t Get Any Prettier!

Spring and the Fairhope Arts and Crafts Festival March 16-18. It doesn’t get any prettier! The azaleas are in full bloom, the streets are adorned with thousand of beautiful flowers, and it just feels great to be alive.

One of our areas most laid-back, picturesque events is the Fairhope Arts and Crafts Festival, March 16-18. Festival hours are 10 am - 5 pm daily and there is no admission charge. 

Over 230 exhibitors from throughout the nation will bring their best works to show and sell at this prestigious, juried show. Live entertainment will be going on throughout the three-day event and unique cuisine will be served up in the food court. It all takes place on the streets of beautiful downtown Fairhope, Alabama. The festival was chosen as one of the top 20 events in the southeast for March by the Alabama Bureau of Tourism and there is a great reason why. It’s fun. Somehow even with the large audience, it doesn’t seem crowded.  

BRATS (Baldwin County Area Transportation System) will offer a shuttle service from the Plantation Pointe Shopping Center, Eastern Shore Village Center and Ecor Rouge Place. All of the parking is free and the locations are less than a five-minute ride away. The shuttle ride costs $2 one way. 

You could even make it a weekend get-away. There is so much to see and do on the Eastern Shore, here are many wonderful stores and great restaurants to choose from. For complete information, call the Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce at (251) 621-8222 or check out http://eschamber.com/artscrafts/
