150 Artists Expected for Fall for the Arts Festival

Germantown Avenue will host more than 150 artists from across the country as Chestnut Hill readies for its annual “Fall for the Arts Festival” on Sunday.

The festival kicks off at 11 a.m. and runs until 5 p.m., and it will feature an array of oils, watercolors, etchings, photography, sculpture, pottery, wood crafts, jewelry and accessories.

Germantown Avenue will be closed to all vehicle traffic from Willow Grove Avenue all the way up the hill to Evergreen Avenue as festival-goers peruse fine arts and crafts, live entertainment on two stages, exhibits, and children’s rides and activities.

Visitors can stroll the Avenue to view and purchase fine arts and crafts, enjoy live music or dine al fresco. Children can create their own works of art in sand or wood or choose a favorite ride in a special amusement park. Admission to the festival is free.

There will also be $5 all day parking in any of the Chestnut Hill parking lots.
