Norcross Art  Fest   2013

The Norcross Art Fest, the first sparkling member of our Splash Festivals family, will celebrate its tenth season on October 5 and 6, 2013. The popular Art Fest, with crowds of 50,000 festival goers in 2012, makes its home on the charming streets of historic downtown Norcross. Whimsical and wildly colorful artisans from across the country exhibit their imaginative artwork amidst the enchanting shops, eateries and boutiques in the City of Norcross. Named “The Festival with Personality” by visitors, Norcross Art Fest continues to wow shoppers with the wide variety of fun art and fine crafts—the perfect beginning of the festive fall season. We are also proud that Norcross Art Fest won the award for “Event of The Year” by the Gwinnett Convention and Visitors Bureau and also “Best Festival” by the readers of Inside Gwinnett Magazine for 2010, 2011 and 2012.

In addition to the artist market, the lively Kidz Zone awaits children of all ages with the famous, free children’s art pavilion, face painting, inflatables and energetic rides. Continuous entertainment on Thrasher Park’s intimate stage welcomes listeners each year with oldies, blues, jazz and musical surprises. The fantastic food row always draws hungry shoppers with its large variety of tasty treats. The true superstars of Art Fest are the volunteers that treat all of the visitors as welcomed guests—these generous people are the reason Norcross Art Fest has become the award-winning event that it is.
