Savannah's Historic District will host the Fall Arts Festival at the Davenport House Museum on 7 November 2026, bringing artists, artisans and musicians together in Savannah, USA. Historic Savannah Foundation is organising the family-friendly programme across the museum campus, with an artisan fair and activities linked to the historic house.
Fall Arts Festival brings art to Davenport House
The festival is scheduled for Saturday, 7 November 2026, from 10am to 4pm. Historic Savannah Foundation's programme lists the Davenport House Museum as the venue and describes a public celebration of Savannah's creative community. The event is designed around several connected activities rather than a single performance or exhibition.
Visitors will find an artisan vendor fair, hands-on art activities led by local artists and a collaborative community art project. The shared project invites people of all ages to contribute to one work, while local musicians provide live music during the programme. Food and a picnic lawn in the museum garden are also listed among the festival features. The organiser's programme places the event on 7 November 2026.
The festival is open to the public and admission is free, according to the organiser's event information. The Davenport House Museum will be open for exploration during the festival, with interactive opportunities connecting the history of the house to Savannah's contemporary arts community.
Davenport House links the festival to Savannah heritage
The event extends across the Davenport House Museum, the Historic Kennedy Pharmacy, the museum gardens and an outdoor vendor area. That layout gives the Fall Arts Festival a direct connection to the place itself: its art activities take place alongside a historic house, its garden and a preservation centre within the same campus.
The Davenport House Museum describes its programme as part of Historic Savannah Foundation's work in the city. The museum is presented in its own programme material as one of Savannah's oldest homes, making the November event both a community arts programme and a visit to a historic property. Its combination of house exploration, garden space and creative activities distinguishes the festival from an event held only in a temporary hall.
The museum's entrance and shop are listed at Historic Kennedy Pharmacy, 323 E. Broughton Street, Savannah, Georgia. The same address also serves as the setting for the preservation centre named in the museum's programme information. Regional reporting on the festival identifies the venue as part of Savannah's historic district and names Historic Savannah Foundation as host.
