The 2024 Winnsboro Art and Wine Festival is a weekend celebration of artistic expression, regional wines, culinary treats, and live Texas music. With free admittance, the festival is open from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, November 1 and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, November 2 in and around the Bowery Pedestrian Park in downtown Winnsboro.
This year’s show features art — paintings, sculptures, woodwork, jewelry, glasswork, photography, textiles and more — from professional local and visiting artists. Regional wineries are on hand offering tastings while food trucks and vendors bring an array of East Texas cuisine and specialty treats. Texas singer-songwriters provide the soundtrack to the event.
Guests enjoy leisurely meandering through Winnsboro’s Cultural Arts District, taking in its unique mix of shops, galleries, and eateries, all while enjoying a diverse array of art and wine.
Produced by Winnsboro Center for the Arts, the nonprofit organization is dedicated to offering educational programming, cultural experiences, and entertainment to the residents of Winnsboro and the wider East Texas community. The center is a dynamic venue that hosts live music performances, theater productions, art exhibits, classes, workshops and literary events.
“Our annual art and wine festival is a testament to our community’s dedication to the arts and our commitment to bringing people together to celebrate our unique cultural landscape,” says Cyndie Ewert, event chair. “It’s the ideal way to enjoy a fall weekend — fine art, fine wines, and live music, all set against a backdrop of cooler temps, picturesque piney woods, serene lakes and rolling hills.”
