OBX Arts & Craft Festival

Come discover the many talented artisans and craftsmen that call the Outer Banks home at this annual event that brings a world of gorgeous artworks and gifts to one central locale. The OBX Arts & Craft Festival is an annual show that highlights a superb variety of creations from local Outer Banks artists, and which raises awareness for two important charities in the coastal region.

The event takes place at the spacious Hilton Garden Inn in the town of Kitty Hawk, which makes it fairly convenient to reach for folks staying from the central town of Nags Head all the way to the northern Outer Banks communities of Duck and Corolla. During the show, expect to find a world of goodies from roughly 25 local artists, who specialize in painting, pottery, jewelry, photography, glasswork, textile arts, collage, metalwork and so much more. Admission to the show is free, as is parking, and in addition to the artistry on display, attendees can also enjoy an opportunity to learn all about two distinguished Outer Banks charities – N.E.S.T. and Friends of Youth – which will also participate in the show. A great event for shoppers and art fans, the OBX Arts & Craft Festival brings a world of talents to the Outer Banks.
