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.
