The Creative Arts Center in Chatham, Massachusetts, is excited to announce its
52nd Festival of the Arts, to be held August 18, 19 & 20 2023.
This juried, high-quality festival showcases and celebrates the work of 120 fine artisans
and craftsmen presenting their original and handcrafted artwork, jewelry, fabric, pottery, fashion,
wood, glass, metalwork and so much more.
This festival has been called a ‘rite of summer’ by the Cape Cod Chronicle and is the
premier summer arts and crafts event on Cape Cod. Held at Chase Park, just a short stroll
from beautiful downtown Chatham, the festival draws approximately 10,000 collectors and
attendees from throughout Cape Cod -- and well beyond. In addition to showcasing high-end
arts and crafts, the family-friendly festival features a children’s arts and crafts tent,
shuttle bus service and food trucks to accommodate the large number of guests. The festival
is supported by a strong online, print and radio marketing budget that builds upon our long
history of successful events to reach our target audience, as well as promotional banners
lining Main Street to publicize the festival and draw the crowds.
