Macon's First Street Art & Wine Festival unites craft and wine lovers alike

The 567 Center and Just Tap'd are teaming up this weekend to host the three-day event in downtown Macon.

MACON, Ga. — Arts and crafts lovers got the chance to brush up on their knowledge of wine and art with a glass of wine in one hand, and a paint brush in the other. 

It was all part of Macon's First Street Art & Wine Festival. 

The 567 Center and Just Tap'd are teaming up this weekend to host the three-day event in downtown Macon. 

It included several different workshops, art activities, and wine tastings. 

The festival itself is free, but you may have to buy tickets for some activities. 

"It's been a stressful year for everyone. This is just a great opportunity to relax and unwind and have a great weekend. It's a great opportunity for people to spend time with friends and family, and relax and enjoy a little wine, make a little art and browse the shops," said Melissa Macker.

The festival kicked off Friday morning and continued into Saturday from noon until 7 p.m..

The last day of the festival happens Sunday, Sept 19 from 1-4 p.m.
