There have been several outdoor festivals lately in Cobb County.

And there’s about to be another one.

For the fourth decade, Marietta's parks department is holding the two-day May-Retta Daze — say it out loud, heavy on the accent, if you're wondering.

The arts and crafts festival at Glover Park in the Marietta Square will feature more than 100 artists and craftsmen selling all kinds of goods: paintings, pottery, jewelry and more.

Some vendors have been posting on Facebook that they'll be there.

The free festival runs on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, according to the city.

Free parking will be available in the county parking garage.
