Organizers are hard at work making sure the two-day May-retta Daze arts and crafts and outdoor music festival goes off without any hiccups.

Glover Park will be home to the annual festival, which is set for Saturday, May 4 and Sunday, May 5 in downtown Marietta.

Vendors showcasing art and handmade items such as pottery, painting, glass, fabric, soap and candles will be on hand for you to explore as you take in the sounds of live music performed by local artists. This event is perfect for the entire family, as festival food and a kid’s zone will also be part of the show.

The fun continues into the evening when Chris Stalcup & The Grange, a Georgia-based roots-rock band, takes the stage for a free concert at 7 p.m. Saturday.
