Island Springfest

Springfest returns February 28 and March 1, bringing a vibrant weekend of art, creativity, and island inspiration.

Shop for one-of-a-kind art and creative crafts at the Art & Craft Show, open 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday. Admission is free but please consider bringing canned or non-perishable food donation to help fill Roser Food Pantry. Roser Food Pantry helps those with food insecurities on the island.

Discover an exciting mix of local makers and returning creatives, each bringing their own unique style and passion. Painter Kristina Grillo captures texture and movement in every piece, while local photographer Jimmy Chadsey defies convention by going with the “flow,” showcasing stunning water, reef, and shoreline imagery. Woodworker Tim Gillespie returns with his exotic, hand-carved wood bowls, and jeweler Heather Veremis dazzles with freshwater pearls, larimar, and effortlessly beachy, boho-inspired designs. These are just a few of the many talented artists returning to make Springfest a must-visit celebration of island creativity.

In addition to the Art & Craft Show, Springfest 2026 brings a few new additions to the weekend. Get ready to shop, stroll, sip and taste your way through the island.

Taste of the Island is set to spotlight the island’s vibrant food scene, featuring local eateries serving up small plates priced from just $4 to $10. All food sales will flow through the main gate using $1 food tickets, making it fast and easy for guests to sample more.

Plus, Community Cocktails will be available for purchase through the Chamber of Commerce from 12:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., adding the perfect island-inspired sip to your Springfest experience. From 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m., Maverick & Lulu from iHeartRadio will be on-site bringing the fun and giving away concert tickets throughout the afternoon.
