Hosted by Wilmington's local Thalian Association Community Theatre (TACT), the two-day event will highlight a vast array of local artistic talent as well as bring the community together in celebration of Wilmington's coastal culture.
According to Port City Daily, "The family-friendly festival’s aim is to showcase the talents of area artists – oil and watercolor paintings, pottery, jewelry, metal arts and paper creations – while also entertaining crowds with a variety of performers and musicians."
Local eateries will also have food and refreshments available for fuel as you meander through the sea of artist tents.
