The 33rd Annual Spring Arts Festival returns to downtown Ocean Springs on March 28–29, 2026, bringing together artists, makers, and growers for a vibrant weekend celebrating creativity and community.

Visitors can explore a wide variety of fine art and handmade goods, including paintings, pottery, jewelry, plants, herbs, and garden-inspired creations. The festival also features live artist demonstrations, educational seminars, entertainment, and a lively atmosphere as downtown shops, restaurants, and galleries partner with the Ocean Springs Chamber–Main Street to host the annual event.

Among the participating artists is painter Hope Walker-Morgan, whose work captures expressive coastal landscapes and atmospheric scenes inspired by the Gulf Coast's beauty. Guests are invited to stop by her booth to view original works and connect with the artist during the weekend celebration.

Festival hours are Saturday, March 28, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday, March 29, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Whether you’re an art enthusiast, plant lover, or simply looking for an inspiring spring outing, the Ocean Springs Spring Arts Festival offers a memorable weekend along Mississippi’s Gulf Coast.
