Mark your calendar for next year: Saturday, September 16th, 2023.
The Artist Application for 2022 will open February 1, 2023.
Taking over Main Street every year, this event features over 100 juried artists and craftspeople, and live music performed by beloved local artists.
The 2022 list of Artists is here.
Every year, we invite a Judge from the local Art scene to join us. During the show, artists are juried by our esteemed Judge to receive awards of $1000 for best of show, $500 for second place, and $250 for third, as well as 4 $50 honorable mentions.
Thanks to the incredible generosity of our guest Judge in 2022, every winner also received free Artist Memberships to the Asheville Art Museum.
Weaverville has established itself as a culturally rich destination, with its now well-established street festival each September. The Town has earned a reputation for its quaint atmosphere, artistic spirit, and distinctive shops and restaurants.
