September 28 & 29  
Madison, Georgia
10am-5pm 
125 Artists
Deadline: April 28

If you only do one show in the Southeast this year, this should be the one!   

• Developed through the input from dozens of top Festival Artists   
• dedicated to  showcasing the best in contemporary fine art and fine craft, while also  enabling the engagement and exposure of many local and nonprofit  interests.    
• In our first year we are implementing a Homestay Program for  Festival artists, with the aim of defraying some of the upfront costs  artists typically have to bear. 

Our goal is to create a national arts market that recognizes and rewards the investments artists make to being here, while also giving our art patrons and supporters significant value for their investments as well.

Admission will be charged, and will be offset via our Festival Merchant Discount Program, giving Festival artists and visitors a 10% discount on purchases at participating local restaurants, hotels, and retailers.

The setting for the Festival is the beautiful historic antebellum town of Madison, Georgia, known as "the town Sherman refused to burn," and "the #1 small town in America" (Travel Holiday Magazine). 

It has a reputation as an internationally select destination, and perfectly reflects the qualities of our Festival namesake...The Cotton South. Surely hope you will join us in our inaugural event.
