We are excited to Announce the 42nd annual Blueberry Art Festival. Each year the event draws 30,000 to 40,000 festival-goers across the three-day event.  With modifications for health and safety, we anticipate that approximately 270 artists, crafters, and makers are participating in the 2023 event, along with some fantastic food vendors.  

We have plenty of returning artists, crafters, and makers, along with some exciting new ones. Whether you are looking for watercolor or acrylic art, pottery, woodcraft, or something unique or unusual, you will find it at this year's festival. We mentioned food.Those sumptuous blueberry pies are back, along with delicious burgers, brats, and pork chops on a stick. Of course, there is seafood and kettle corn, and refreshing beverages - did we mention waffles too.

We need to mention our Operation Blueberry event happening in our business community. Watch for the Operation Blueberry map, which we will post on Friday, July 22, 2023. Since there is too much to do in one day, why not enjoy Operation Blueberry and visit our local attractions one day, and come back to the festival for the second day of fun, food, and exciting arts and crafts.
