Discover Local Art and Handmade Goods

Enjoy Live Music All Weekend
Live performances will run daily, featuring a variety of musical styles from Celtic to acoustic rock. Artists include Joe Quick, Work in Progress, Callanish Celtic Band, tvBlonde, and others. Music starts at noon on Thursday and runs through Saturday afternoon.

Savor Farm-Fresh Flavors
A lineup of seven food vendors—including Beech Hollow BBQ, Bailey’s Wafflelicious, and Sweet Dreams Snack Shack—will serve up everything from savory meals to sweet treats. The Way Café will also be open with a limited festival menu and fresh-baked apple cider donuts.

Family-Friendly Fun for All Ages
In addition to shopping and food, Art in the Orchard offers a variety of activities for kids and families. Highlights include a multi-animal petting zoo, the ever-popular bunny barn, a butterfly tent, live sand sculpting, and evening hot air balloon rides (weather permitting).
