The festival takes place all weekend — November 23 through 25 — and is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. free of charge. It will feature over 100 Southwestern and Native American arts and crafts booths along with live music and concessions.

You can pick up some jewelry or paintings from local artists while enjoying the Carefree Desert Gardens, where the festival takes place.
