FRAA A Taste of Art and Wine Festival

We are joining the Florence Chamber’s 13th Annual Wine & Chowder Trail. It will be making a stop again this year at the Florence Events Center, Saturday, February 17th from 10am – 5pm and Sunday, February 8th, from 11am – 4pm.

Not only can you experience a taste of wine from our regional wineries but enjoy the art and fine craftsmanship of our local artisans. Florence Regional Arts Alliance is the organizer for the Festival, bringing together both local and regional artists and craftsmen to fill the booths with their latest creations. Come and see works of art in wood; all kinds of fiber creations; jewelry designs in various media; glass art, pottery, paintings, photography and more.

Some of the artists will be demonstrating their painting techniques.

In addition, FRAA will host a juried art show for local artists displaying their works. We will have both 2D and 3D artwork with prizes awarded in each, of $300, $200 and $100 and a people’s choice award. Admission to A Taste of Art and Wine Festival is free. Come find the float and join us for a great weekend.
