Pearland Art & Crafts on the Pavilion celebrates area artists who specialize in handcrafted pieces in an outdoor market setting.  The FREE, two-day event showcases locally curated artists plus an assortment of activities for all ages. Presented by the Pearland Convention & Visitors Bureau, this year’s event will take place at the Pearland Town Center Pavilion, 11200 Broadway Street on Saturday, October 7 and Sunday, October 8 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. plus a new evening concert kicking off at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday night.

In addition to exceptional shopping, a Food Truck Court, Wine Bistro, Live Music, Chalk Art by Pearland young artists, Kid’s Interactive Art Station, and a Pop-Up Paint Studio presented by Art & Kustom Kreations will be part of the festivities. 

 “We’re excited to add a new, Saturday night 2-hour concert featuring The Spinsations starting at 5:30 p.m. We’re happy to provide visitors with another way to enjoy the event,” according to Kim Sinistore, executive director of the Pearland Convention & Visitors Bureau.

The Pop-Up Paint Studio presented by Pearland’s own Art & Kustom Kreations is back by popular demand.  Visitors can enjoy FREE paint instruction classes with sessions planned throughout the weekend for children and adults.  Visitors can sign up for the classes on-site during event days.    

Courageous Band takes the stage on Saturday with a few special featured guests before The Spinsations rock out the evening from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.  On Sunday, The Grifters & Shillers debut at the Pavilion with the 4 Barrel Ramblers closing out the show.  

The Food Truck Court rolls in to the show and features area local favorites - D’Lish Curbside Bistro, Nom Mi Street and Space City Spudz.

Keep Pearland Beautiful and the Global Organization for Divinity will keep the kids busy creating take-home art projects at the Kid’s Interactive Art Station open both days from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
