The Fuzzy Pineapple Craft & Art Festival TFPFEST,

About the event

The purpose of this festival is to bring awareness of the diverse, independent, original artists located here in our city! It is our mission to help these artists generate enough buzz to propel them into their next level of artistic and economic growth. Together, we can accomplish this mission!

We seek to provide Tallahassee and its artist community with a well stocked, pleasant and eventful festival. Our execution of this task will be tremendously enhanced by your support.


Who are we?

We are a two-person sister team who makes custom and handmade art, apparel, and accessories. We started this small company in 2011, and as of 2015 have begun to turn it into a full-time career. We have recently relaunched our website, are on social media, and travel. We are currently seeking new opportunities to network and grow in an ethical and mutually beneficial way. This year we have even more support from an amazing group of festival volunteers that helped with previous festivals!


Who is the festival for?

We are primarily focusing on student artists, local artists and entrepreneurs such as growers, crafters, handmakers, musicians, dancers, filmmakers, and performers. Our secondary goal through this festival is to launch a sewing group initiative, help local new artists emerge economically by giving them the tools to create and sustain their own businesses, as well as aid in youth sponsorship programs that give educational and entrepreneurial opportunities to at risk youth.


Who do we expect to participate in the event?

This event is for students, artists, entertainers, growers, handmakers, and crafters. We expect this event to cater to art lovers, foodies, pet lovers, family, and friends. There is something for everyone, activity booths to keep little ones occupied while mom shops. The teens can meet with entrepreneurs their own age while looking for clues in the scavenger hunt. College students can network and chow down on tasty eats. Dad can rock out with the band onstage. Grandparents can walk their favorite pets as they speak with the artists or take in a short film on the lawn.
