The Beaches Art Fest Returns as Two-Day Event

Writer  /  Lynn Wettach

The 4th Annual Beaches Art Fest returns as a two-day fine art extravaganza. The event is being held October 14-15 on Pablo Ave (Beach Blvd & A1A), Jacksonville Beach and will benefit the Beaches Museum & History Park.

Lynn Wettach, Show Director, is well known for bringing artisans together who are recognized nationally/regionally for their talents. The show is a professionally juried art and fine craft event where each exhibitor is carefully selected with only the best work being accepted in each category. This year there are nearly 100 outstanding artisans and master craftsmen who will be exhibiting their carefully created works. The person or artist you meet in the booth is the visionary behind the work.

Each is available throughout the show to discuss their work, share their stories and answer questions. It’s a perfect opportunity to explore a wonderful palette of diverse artwork.

“The success of the first three years of The Beaches Art Fest shows how much the community wants this type of event at the Beach,” says Chris Hoffman, Executive Director of the Beaches Museum & History Park. “This is going to be a wonderful experience for the artists and the visitors.”
