34th Annual Spring Jubilee: Saturday, April 2nd-April 3rd, 2011 |
|
| HISTORIC PENDLETON SPRING JUBILEE began
in 1978 as a means to inaugurate tourism in Anderson, Oconee
and Pickens Counties. It has become so much more – a
rite of spring, award-winning event, premier festival of
the upstate and a source of pride in the community. |
|
Over 300 artisans vie for the coveted 90 spaces. Local and regional entertainers fill the air with music. Due to the festival’s reputation for consistency and quality, thousands of people pour into historic Pendleton the first weekend in April. As patrons look at unique, one-of-a-kind arts and crafts from around the country, live entertainment fills the air with music and local food vendors tempt you with smells of delicious foods. |
|
Inclement weather does not stop the show. Spring
rains and winds may dampen the grounds, but the shoppers
come because they know they can purchase one-of-a-kind creations.
Many artisans have such a following that the buyers help
them set up their booths so they can have first choice of
their work. |
|
The
Historic Pendleton Spring Jubilee has earned respect through
the last thirty years by being twice named the BEST FESTIVAL
IN SOUTH CAROLINA IN A COMMUNITY OF LESS THAN 3000, a TOP
100 EVENT by the American Bus Association and multi-winner
of the TOP TWENTY EVENTS IN THE SOUTHEAST by the Southeast
Tourism Society. Come and be part of an award-winning day
in a beautiful historic setting. |

"The
Spring Jubilee
is at the top
of my list of
favorite shows.
As an artist
I do many shows.
The quality of
the show is most
important. I
only show at "juried
shows",
so that the people
visiting and
potential buyers
are not disappointed
when shopping
for a gift or
a personal item
such as jewelry,
pottery, or a
painting for
a very special
place in their
home. The Spring
Jubilee is at
the top of my
spring shows
list. The artists
are all professional
people, as well
as the staff
putting the show
together. This
show is worth
a drive, or even
a rainy, windy
day. You will
not be disappointed
when you see
the fine arts
and crafts that
Spring Jubilee
has to offer." |
