EARTH & ART at Redbud Festival
Third Saturday in April
REGISTER HERE!
The Redbud Earth & Art Festival is a gathering of artists and artisans, food growers and producers, makers of all natural products from Missouri (plus a bit of southern Illinois and eastern Kansas), brought together in the month of Earth Day to celebrate our natural world. Products are accepted based on these criteria: products are original and of high quality; works must be made in Missouri or
neighboring states; and by number of entries in a given medium, so that as many
mediums as possible are represented and no one medium is over-represented ("mediums" for our purposes here include artwork, crafts, foods, and any other items celebrating our earth.)
Works will be reviewed in the order they are received and accepted or rejected
within a week of entry. There is a $20 entry fee, to cover some of the
costs of lawn care, advertising, and incidentals; the entry fee is
non-refundable but will be offset by a $8 food stand allowance, and a
continental breakfast of coffee, juice and danish the morning of setup.
We will be
advertising widely, and there are visitors from the Jefferson City, St. Louis,
Kansas City and Springfield areas, as well as from out of state, who regularly
attend this event. Come join us
for a wonderful day reveling in nature! To enter, please click here to visit the registration page on our website. Hope to
hear from you soon.
