Riverfest 2016

September 15, 2016

The 32nd annual Riverfest Arts & Crafts Festival is Sept. 24-25!

What is Riverfest?

The Riverfest Arts and Crafts Festival is the historic cornerstone of the Service League’s fundraising efforts. 2016 marks its 32nd year and each year the group polishes their reputation for being family-oriented and having a warm relationship with vendors. Riverfest is a juried show, featuring original, creative, handmade work from artisans all over the southeast region topped with incredible entertainment throughout the weekend – including live music and dancing – as well as a fun-filled children’s area where children of all ages can participate in a number of kid-friendly rides and activities.
