Buckhead Spring Arts & Crafts Festival

This weekend is the Annual BSACF at Chastain Park. 

What a fun alternative to a traditional Mother's Day! 

There will be tons of artists, food, music, activities for kids and fun for the whole family. 

Here's some great additional info from their website about why the festival was created:

"The Buckhead Spring Arts & Crafts Festival is a two-day Atlanta outdoor event with an emphasis on the visual arts. Located in the largest public park in Fulton County, we set out with many different goals in mind: 1) Give back to the community through art; 2) Create a venue that emphasizes local and Georgian artists, so they have a show they can depend on in their own back yard; 3) Bring a festival to the folks in the northern part of Fulton county; 4) Create a festival for Artists by Artists, letting the artist have a voice in the creation and operations of the festival; 5) Create an art festival unlike any other in the City of Atlanta, bringing together outstanding local, regional and national artists. 

The Chastain Park area is rich with one of Atlanta's largest and most enthusiastic art buying communities. This event will feature up to 185 fine painters, photographers, sculptors, leather and metal craft persons, glass blowers, jewelers and more! The Festival will also offer visitors the opportunity to view artist demonstrations, enjoy live entertainment, participate in hands-on arts activities, and enjoy festival foods and beverages.

The Festival benefits a scholarship fund for local artists administered by the Georgia Foundation for Public Spaces."
