As big admirers of all things Appalachian, the Southern West Virginia CVB offers you up this list. Come to the Appalachian Festival, and get your last
Quilts - Appalachian Arts & Crafts Fest
summer fun in the southern WV way!
• Hillbilly Breakfast – Biscuits-n-gravy, and… well that’s all you need to say really (plenty of other stuff, too).
• Arts and Crafts Fair – This is the 45th annual event, where you can find knicks, knacks, and pretty much every combination thereof.
• Coal Mine Tour - The tour goes on all the time, but there’s a deep discount (by showing your Appalachian Arts & Crafts Fair ticket stub) during the Festival! It’s always worth going underground for this one.
• Strolling Musicians - It’s like a bluegrass mariachi band; just eat lunch in the park and enjoy the show.
• Ghost Tours – Find out what the dead are up to in Uptown Beckley as you tour some beautiful homes with some frightful history right in town.
• Live Music at Grandview – There’s nothing better on the last nights of summer that showing up at the outdoor amphitheater at Grandview for an outdoor show.
• Flea Market - Everything from apples to stuffed zebras is on sale, and then some. If you’re a bargain hunter, this is for you.
• Kids Crafts – Traditional artisans show up to teach kids how to make something special with the soul of the mountains in it.
• Taste Of Appalachia - Everything worth eating in a 50 mile radius will be on hand to try out. This is the perfect event for the appetite that wants everything.
• Classic Car Show - How did so many great cars wind up in southern West Virginia? You’ll have to go to the car show to find out. Worth every second.
