Piedmont Park Arts and Crafts Festival

The
Atlanta Foundation for Public Spaces will host its third annual arts and crafts
festival at Piedmont Park on August 17-18 in Midtown and it’s full of
surprises!  Up to 250 artists and artisans will display their works during
this two-day event along paths in the park. 
Plus, expect a Guinness World Record attempt presented by HoopEssence
and “Cirque du Piedmont” performances by the Imperial Opa Circus on
Saturday!  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!  

Visitors will
enjoy a wide variety of art and crafts, a children’s area and local food and
beverage concessions including the “gourmet” food trucks.  Local acoustic musicians will enliven the
atmosphere.  Visitors will also enjoy the
Guinness World Record attempt presented by HoopEssence and “Cirque du Piedmont”
performances by the Imperial Opa Circus. 
The Atlanta Burger Crawl and Craft Beer will be ongoing throughout the
weekend.  Plus the “Sunday Funday Corn
Hole Tournament” will be held to benefit CURE Childhood Cancer on Sunday.  This event is organized by the Atlanta
Foundation for Public Spaces and volunteer artists.  Best of all, it’s entirely free to attend!
