The Suffolk Earth & Arts Festival's purpose is to bring together artists, musicians and gardening professionals to celebrate the best that our region offers.
We hope to establish an annual event that will create culture and highlight the bounty of art, music and nature in the City of Suffolk. We will have live music, plant sales, sustainable vendors, and non-profits.

Suffolk Earth & Arts Festival
Coming Back in 2023
From 2017-2019, the Suffolk Earth and Arts Festival delighted thousands of Suffolkians and Hampton Roads residents alike. A venue for makers and growers - the event was a perfect blend of local entrepreneurs, businesses, educational organizations, and artists. After its four-year hiatus, it is back and under new management.
Keep Suffolk Beautiful and the Suffolk Art League have teamed up to organize the festival for Earth Day, April 22, 2023, from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m., located on the grounds of the Westminster Reformed Presbyterian Church, 3488 Godwin Blvd. This outdoor festival will feature live music, face painting, local food, family friendly activities, and 50-75 vendors. The Suffolk Master Gardeners will hold a large plant sale and be available to answer questions and share their gardening expertise. |
