Piedmont Park Arts Festival

This outdoor visual-arts festival brings as many as 250 painters, photographers, sculptors, jewelers, glass artists, leather and metalworkers and other craftspeople to Piedmont Park. Families can watch artist demonstrations, hear live acoustic music, visit the Emerging Artists Pavilion and stop at the children’s play area. Festival food and beverages include healthier alternatives.

Admission is free, and the event proceeds rain or shine without a rain date. The producer says nearby parking is available but prohibits festival parking on surrounding residential streets.
