The 2008 Festival of Art will be held Saturday and Sunday (March 8-9), from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m., at Waterfront Park in Orange Beach.

Meet and talk with the artists from around the region and country. This festival is designed and dedicated to those that create and those that appreciate and purchase art of all varieties.

Whether you are looking for glass, jewelry, photography, painting, sculpture, wood, ceramics or fiber, you are destined to find art to fall in love with.

For parents, the Kids Park playground is located close by.

Coconut Dave will perform for the crowds as they walk through the many booths.

Once again the Fire and Rescue Ladies Auxiliary will be selling wonderful food at the Festival of Art. Enjoy lunch or a snack and support these women as they raise funds for charitable projects.

After you have enjoyed the art at the festival, stroll over to the newly renovated Orange Beach Art Center and see the work of over 100 local artists.

The annual Festival of Art is a program of the Orange Beach Art Center.
