Orange Beach Festival of Art

There’s something for everyone here, as you’ll find mediums ranging from paintings and photography to handcrafted sculptures, mixed media, and more from over 100 vendors. Each year, a select panel of judges awards prizes, such as Best in Show, Mayor’s Choice, and other accolades, to artists participating in the juried art competition. The winning artists will have their ribbons displayed, so you can easily view the winning creations. Additionally, many of these vendors’ pieces are available for purchase, and guests can also find and purchase works by local artists for sale inside the Coastal Art Center. 

Browsing outstanding art pieces isn’t the only reason to visit the festival. Throughout the weekend, guests will enjoy live demonstrations at The Clay Studio and The Hot Shop and live music and theater performances. In addition to the juried art on display, many local crafters will be at the festival selling handmade goods such as jewelry, clothes, and home décor. There is even a kid’s art alley where they can create their own masterpieces to take home. And don’t forget the array of fantastic food vendors that will be on-site offering up unique dishes.
