Jour de Fete Day of Celebration in Ste. Genevieve
Ste. Genevieve has been welcoming travelers, traders and artists for more than 275 years. You can join in the fun and shop for treasures at the annual Jour de Fete arts and crafts festival. With over 200 arts and crafts booths, plus hands-on exhibits and special attractions, Ste. Genevieve’s annual Jour de Fete celebration has been described as one of “the premier arts and crafts fair in the Midwest” and a weekend you don’t want to miss.
Come admire woodworking items, leather belts and wallets, hand-made pottery, crafty artwork, and interesting jewelry. Enjoy a sno-cone and savor a pork burger or shish kabob! As the first European settlement in Missouri, the French Colonial setting of Ste. Genevieve provides a perfect setting for this annual event.
