All proceeds will be used for the

Alley Plantation, a National Historic
Landmark, which is owned and operated by a
private, non-profit foundation.
What's Goin' On?
More than 170 booths of juried artists and
crafters from throughout the United States.
Coming from as far away as California,
Missouri and Tennessee, to as close as
Mississippi, Florida, Texas, Alabama,
Arkansas, and our own local artisans from
Louisiana. Oak Alley's show prides itself in
selecting crafters with the most unique
items to sell. We also limit each booth to
selling items from only two categories. We
have made it our mission to continue to have
a high quality Festival that only
handcrafted, original items are allowed to
be sold by exhibitors. More specifically,
the items must be hand-made by the
exhibitor, themselves and the exhibitor must
be on hand to talk about his craft during
the show. "Secret Shoppers" roam the
Festival to ensure that crafters are
following the rules.
Some unique items such as mixed media 2-D
art, garden & folk art, stained glass,
Louisiana Mud Paintings, pen and ink
drawings, watercolor prints, copper
fountains, sculptured resin dolls, gourmet
jellies & pickles will be on display for
sale. And of course, we will have on hand
original and handmade creations such as
jewelry, furniture, clothing, home
accessories, paintings, photography,
pottery, wooden crafts and toys. You will
also find gifts to give for Easter, Mother's
Day and Father's Day. And don't forget, for
all those sports fans we will have plenty of
LSU and Saints memorabilia!
Bring the Kids!
As always we structure the festival with
activities for the entire family to enjoy.
The kids will have more fun than the
parents. We will have pony rides, a petting
zoo, EuroBungy jumping, face painting,
jewelry making, sand art and much more to
keep them busy.
