The Ormewood Park Makers Festival Brings Creating to the Community

What: Ormewood Park Makers Festival, presented by SAND, is a festival created to highlight the Ormewood Park community, while providing a space for learning and creating. Hobbyists, start-ups and professionals will share their love of a craft, skill or passion with others. 2024 will be the sixth edition of the festival (2017, 2018, 2019, 2022, and 2023). The festival was not held in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Where: The festival is held in the historic Ormewood Park neighborhood, nestled between East Atlanta Village and Grant Park. The community of diverse residents will share what makes their neighborhood great while supporting talented artisans and craftsmen in their community and throughout Greater Atlanta.

When: Saturday, May 18th, 2024, featuring an outdoor Artist Market, Maker Workshops, Food Vendors and Food Trucks, and live music from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

Who: The Ormewood Park Makers Festival is an event hosted by the South Atlantans for Neighborhood Development (SAND), in partnership with Ormewood Church. The festival is run by a committee of volunteers from the neighborhood and SAND leadership. The 2022 and 2023 festivals were a HUGE success, thanks to our sponsors, artists, workshop hosts, food vendors, and all of out Atlanta neighbors that came out! The festival has raised approximately $25k over the past two years that was reinvested into the community. Funds were distributed to assist with the upkeep of The Porch Press, paying off student lunch balances, and the creation of SAND’s own Neighbor in Need program.

The long-term goal is for the festival to serve as an opportunity to allow SAND to fundraise and to continue to give back to worthy causes in our community. SAND donates to projects that include support for our senior residents through a Neighbor in Need program, beautification efforts, our local schools, and other local organizations that may not have accessible financial support for community initiatives.

We appreciate your time and consideration of our goal with the festival, and we hope that you’ll join us in 2024 and many years to come!
