The Creative Arts Guild is Georgia’s oldest multi-disciplinary community arts center. We celebrate our organizational 60th anniversary in 2023 as well as our 60th FESTIVAL. The Creative Arts Guild is located in northwest Georgia, approximately 20 miles south of Chattanooga TN and 70 miles north of Atlanta.
In addition to the Outdoor Artist Market, FESTIVAL also includes an indoor juried patron exhibit which hangs in the Guild galleries from September 15 - October 27, children's multi-cultural activities, live music and performances, food vendors, and self-guided tours of the Robert T. Webb Sculpture Garden. Admission is free.
FESTIVAL weekend kicks off with our signature ticketed Friday night event, the FESTIVAL Preview Party and Taste of Dalton. Our patrons enjoy making early purchases from both the Outdoor Artist Market and the Indoor FESTIVAL Exhibit, all while sampling tasty treats from some of Dalton's favorite restaurants.
