Springfest

The Gulfport Area Chamber of Commerce will host its 22nd Annual Springfest Garden Art & Faerie Festival along the green and tree-covered expanse of Gulfport-s 7.5 acre Clymer Park, on April 9-10, 2016. The Garden Art & Faerie themed festival will transform the park into an ?enchanted village? inhabited by costumed faeries, sprites, gnomes, ogres and trolls. Renaissance-era characters, gypsies, minstrels, wizards and roving entertainers in costume will also stroll through the event. A wide variety of family friendly activities and entertainment will include a May pole dance, a faerie house contest, costume contests and live music. A children-s area will offer activities including face painting, pixie dusting, bubble blowing, and more. Vendors offer plants, garden art, flowers, herbs, Renaissance-period items, clothing, jewelry, art, hand-made crafts, food & beverages, and other items of whimsical interest. There is no admission fee for the pet and family friendly event, and complimentary parking is available with gratis trolley rides to and from off-site parking areas.
