Ormond Beach Mainstreet and the Ormond Beach Arts District sponsored the 12th annual Granada Grand Festival of the Arts along New Britain Ave. on a sunny day on Saturday, Feb. 7.
A crowd gathered to enjoy the works of 80 artists and craftsmen, while listening to live music provided by The Locals Mix, including a lineup of Holy Human, Sammy Rose, Late Drop, Crow Moon, Les of a Human, and Fylo Zoet. People could grab a bowl of smoked Gouda mac and cheese or lobster bisque at the 31 Supper Club tent or some Pump House BBQ.
The poetry slam returned with Eddie Figuero winning $750 and qualifying for the Blackberry Peach National Poetry Slam in July.
Nine artists participated in the ArtHaus Foundation Chalk Art Competition. Patrons purchased tokes throughout the day to vote for the People's Choice award. Funds received from those purchases go towards programming for at-risk special needs and underprivileged youth in Volusia County schools.
Executive Director Cameron Vintson thanked Ormond Beach Main Street and their sponsors for putting on a great art festival.
“It’s always such a privilege and such a joy to chalk at this event,” Vintson said. “It is community here, and we feel so welcome every time we come. Thank you to Becky (Parker), Julia (Truilo), and Jade (Bowling), the patrons and the community members. You guys rock.”
