The Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance (SAACA) is bringing the Spring Festival of the Arts back to the Oro Valley Marketplace (12155 N. Oracle Rd.) this St. Patrick’s Day Weekend, Saturday, March 16 and Sunday, March 17.
The festival will host more than 125 artists and exhibitors spanning all mediums, food vendors, live Celtic music and cultural dance performances on the main stage, inflatable art installations, a kid’s crafting station, beer and wine garden, bagpipers, and more.
Oh, and the festival is free to attend.
Unique to this iteration of the Spring Festival of the Arts is a Celtic theme — just in time for St. Patrick’s Day Weekend.
Roving bagpipers will entertain with traditional Irish songs throughout the festival grounds while live Celtic music and cultural dance performances will excite on the main stage.
The Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance (SAACA) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the creation, preservation, and advancement of the Arts. SAACA strengthens the bonds between people, place and purpose through collaborative, arts-driven experiences.
SAACA (formerly the Greater Oro Valley Arts Council) was created to develop cultivated programming that spotlights local creatives and celebrates unique culture while providing direct opportunities for artists to make and sell their work.
