Hidden gems, fantastic fruit and fairy enchantment satchels must be found before the festival is through in order to bring the humans back to their homes. Come ready to help us find these lost treasures, share your traditions with the fairies and bask in the glow of their fairy glamour as all bring fantasy and delight. 

Set in Artpark’s Lower Park, the Fairy House Festival is an event filled with hands-on art activities and featuring a woodland tour of numerous Fairy Houses locally designed and built by professional Artists, families and community groups. Park in Lot B and try to arrive between 10:15 and 10:30am, so you don't miss the Dragon Parade starting promptly at 11am! Follow the Dragon, humans and fairies down the Red Brick Road to delight in  Artpark’s 15th annual Fairy House Festival. Purchase Mystical wares at the Mythic Market Place. Hear an enchanting harp drifting through the woods and listen to stories at the Storytelling Place. Mix magical potions, welcome fairies into your home by making fairy doors, become a fairy wearing wings or a mushroom hat, get your face painted or sip some fairy tea. All ages can delight in dancing with bubbles and wondering through the woods to find Fairy Houses.
