31st
Annual Historic Pendleton Spring Jubilee |
|
|
HISTORIC PENDLETON SPRING
JUBILEE began in 1978 as a means to inaugurate
tourism in Anderson, Oconee and Pickens Counties. It
has become so much more – a rite of spring, award-winning
event, premier festival of the upstate and a source
of pride in the community.
Over 300 artisans vie for the coveted 90 spaces. Local
and regional entertainers fill the air with music. The
Scottish student performances always bring the largest
crowd with a show of hospitality that warms their hearts.
Because of the festival’s reputation for consistency
and quality, thousands of people pour into historic Pendleton
the first weekend in April.
Inclement weather does not stop the show. Spring rains
and winds may dampen the grounds, but the shoppers come
because they know they can purchase one-of-a-kind creations.
Many artisans have such a following that the buyers help
them set up their booths so they can have first choice
of their work.

Bus Association and multi-winner of the TOP TWENTY
EVENTS IN THE SOUTHEAST by the Southeast Tourism
Society. Come and be part of an award-winning day
in a beautiful historic setting. |

"The
Spring Jubilee is at the top of my list
of favorite shows. As an artist I do many
shows. The quality of the show is most important.
I only show at "juried shows",
so that the people visiting and potential
buyers are not disappointed when shopping
for a gift or a personal item such as jewelry,
pottery, or a painting for a very special
place in their home. The Spring Jubilee
is at the top of my spring shows list. The
artists are all professional people, as
well as the staff putting the show together.
This show is worth a drive, or even a rainy,
windy day. You will not be disappointed
when you see the fine arts and crafts that
Spring Jubilee has to offer." |
