STONE MOUNTAIN, GA– Featuring more than 350 artists from across the United States, Stone Mountain Park’s 54th annual Yellow Daisy Festival will take place Sept. 8-11.
New in 2022, will be theYellow Daisy Vintage Village. Located within the lower meadow of Yellow Daisy Festival, vendors from across the globe will showcase antiques, vintage collectibles, and amazing farmhouse chic home goods and décor.
The Yellow Daisy Festival gets its name from the September blooming of a special type of yellow daisy, which only grows within 60 miles of Stone Mountain. First discovered in 1846, Viguiera Porteri, grows in bright bands of yellow on the granite outcroppings of the mountain.
The first Yellow Daisy Festival took place at Stone Mountain Park in two picnic pavilions. Over half a century later, it is the Southeast’s largest outdoor arts and crafts festival with more than six acres of art, crafts, music, and food to explore.
More than 350 festival crafters and artists are selected from a pool of applicants by the Yellow Daisy Festival jury to display their distinctive handmade work in categories including pottery, fabric, painting, jewelry, sculpture, fiber, photography, fine arts, and traditional arts and crafts.
There will be a book signing opportunity with author Stacy West, 57 Buttermilk Acres: Mixing Vintage & New for a Cozy, Inviting Home. Discover how West creates layers of cozy home décor in settings large and small, mixing vintage finds with new favorites, for a rich blend of style and functionality.
During all four days of the festival, guests can watch live entertainment on the stage, including DJ Chico, New Orleans Jazz, Yacht Rock, Gospel, and Country. An all-new beer garden will offer a place to rest, relax, and refresh before venturing out to discover more hand-crafted wares. Food trucks and festival food will be on hand as well to satisfy any cravings.
The next generation of festival fans can enjoy activities such as sand art, face painting, balloon artists, and more.
