The
2009 Art Arbor Festival will celebrate the 29th
anniversary of this annual, community event. ARTISTS
& CRAFTERS from all over the nation
line the shaded paths displaying and selling their
work. Don't miss out on this opportunity to get
a head start on your holiday shopping and delight
someone you care about with a truly unique and special
gift.
Although Arts & Crafts have always been the
main focus of the festival there are lots of other
activities as well. You can enjoy LIVE
MUSIC all day on our entertainment
stage. In the WILDLIFE
AREA there are Reptile & Bird of
Prey shows. And on the GREEN
STAGE businesses focused on green living
will talk about how you can incorporate their products
into your every day life. Children will enjoy Kid's
Crafts, Face Painting and traditional carnival games
like the bean bag toss. This event is fun for the
entire family. The trails are also open all day
with two TRAM
TOURS every hour during the festival.
The Art Arbor Festival is co-sponsored by the FRIENDS
OF BOYD HILL NATURE PRESERVE, INC.
and the City of St. Petersburg. All proceeds benefit
the non-profit organization that supports the preserve.
