Art + Ale Oktoberfest is an immersive Oktoberfest celebration taking place at Great South Bay Brewery in Bay Shore, NY. This indoor and outdoor festival brings together a curated lineup of artists, handcrafted makers, artisan vendors, live art, authentic German-inspired festivities, and interactive experiences for an unforgettable fall celebration.
Explore up to 100 talented artists and makers offering handcrafted goods, fine art, home décor, jewelry, woodworking, candles, apparel, seasonal décor, specialty foods, and unique gifts. Throughout the event, guests can watch live artists create their work, experience interactive art installations, and discover one-of-a-kind pieces while supporting local small businesses.
