About the Festival Church Street Art & Craft Show Downtown Waynesville Association P.O. Box 1409 Waynesville, NC 28786 Held during the height of the color season in the Great Smoky Mountains, the Church Street Art & Craft Show attracts more than 20,000 visitors. Over 100 artists, crafters and food vendors from throughout the southeast will line Waynesville's Historic Main Street to help celebrate the festival. What began as a small gathering of artists and craftsmen has evolved into a high quality, well-balanced, juried show now widely known as one of the finest in the region. Downtown Waynesville's picturesque Main Street is closed to vehicular traffic the day of the show, transforming it into an art and craft marketplace. Local musicians and dancers perform, adding to the festive atmosphere and the mountains provide a dramatic backdrop. Saturday October 11, 2014 10am – 5pm Featuring the Region's Finest Artisans Founded in 1983 by artist Teresa Pennington and Richard Miller, the Church Street Art & Craft Show is now sponsored by the Downtown Waynesville Association.
