Gotta Have Art Festival

All are welcome at Clarence Presbyterian Church for the annual You've Gotta Have Art Festival the first weekend of March. In early March each year, the Gotta Have Art Festival Team at Clarence Presbyterian Church hosts an Art Festival celebrating the artistic talents of Western New York. This juried show features over 50 artisans, including Roycrofters, displaying their works for sale, including paintings, jewelry, pottery, glass, photography and textile art. In addition, on Saturday a delicious lunch is available and a free children's creative art project is offered. A raffle of artwork donated by participating artists will also conclude on Saturday. This year the show sets up on Thursday afternoon and evening as well as Friday morning and afternoon. Sale hours are on Friday from 5 P.M. to 9 P.M. and Saturday from 10 A.M. to 4 P.M. Friday night admission also includes special refreshments. The festival takes place at Clarence Presbyterian Church, 9675 Main Street, Clarence, NY, next door to the Clarence High School.
