It’s one of the Southeast’s largest arts and crafts festivals on October 4 from 8am – 5pm. The streets of downtown North Wilkesboro are filled with over 300 artists and craftsmen, 50 food concessions, and three stages featuring Blue Grass, Country, Folk, Gospel, and Appalachian Heritage music. Cloggers, rope skippers, square dancers, folk dancers, and dulcimer players provide additional entertainment throughout the festival. And of course there are apples!
