32nd Annual Jubilee Festival of Arts
September 26 & 27, 2020
10 a.m. - 5 p.m.
Main Street, Olde Towne Daphne, Alabama
Admission: Free
Presented by the Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce
Art, music & seafood meet southern charm at this annual festival set along the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay. The Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce hosts this family-friendly festival each year in coordination with the City of Daphne.
ARTS & CRAFTS VENDORS: Visit more than 100 arts and crafts vendors showcasing the very best in jewelry, paintings, pottery, sculpture, wood, mixed media, functional & decorative items. As a juried art show, vendors are competing for cash prizes which will be awarded Saturday night. It's not too early to start thinking about Christmas presents you won't find anywhere else.
JUBILEE MARKET: The Jubilee Festival of Arts is celebrating the art of making, whether it’s procuring delicious honey and sustaining bees, making and canning jellies, baking yummy treats or growing great produce.
CHEF DEMONSTRATIONS: World Food Championships Team Alabama Chefs will be manning the Eastern Shore Ace Hardware Kitchen throughout the weekend to offer cooking demonstrations for festival guests. Time it just right, and you might even get to taste a few samples.
HIGH SCHOOL ART EXHIBITION: Up-and-coming artists will be on display in the High School Art Exhibit presented by Riviera Utilities. Their work can be found in the Jubilee Courtyard next to Downtown Ci**rs. This is an opportunity for high school art students to compete, exhibit their work and earn prizes. It is also a great way to showcase the wonderful artistic talent found in the high schools located on the Eastern Shore.
KIDS ART PARK: A festival favorite, the Kids Art Park presented by Family Security Credit Union will once again be completely free for families thanks to the festival's generous sponsors. Children will be able to paint their handprints on the fence, make jewelry, construct a wooden block sculpture, have their face painted or even bring home a fish print.
FOOD: Not only can you visit our eclectic food court offering festival favorites, but Olde Towne Daphne is teeming with many delicious restaurants ready to service festival guests.
ENTERTAINMENT: The Entertainment Stage will be filled with local talent and you may see a few new faces with pop-up shows & performances in the streets.
