Poche Plantation Arts and Crafts Show - (225) 274-6618

Historic 1870's Poche Plantation, located between New Orleans & Baton Rouge, continues to host a quality Arts & Crafts Show in St. James. Oct 24&25, 2015

GIVING BACK TO ST JAMES PARISH... A Saint James Parish site continues to host a fall arts and craft show, now on the east back, centrally located between New Orleans and Baton Rouge!

Vendors who typically showed at the former Oak Alley Plantation Festival have moved to the east bank's 1870s plantation located in the center of Plantation Country along our famous River Road. The Nationally Registered Historic Poche Plantation, rooted in St. James Parish, is proud to be the host plantation for this beloved South Louisiana event.

In April of 2014, by resolution, the Economic Development Board gave their praise and approval for the first charitable non-profit show, which like all shows in the future, was designed to benefit the whole of Saint James Parish. The new location held a successful fall debut show in Oct. of 2014 and plans its next show for Oct. 24-25, 2015.

Vendors, who showed their Arts and Crafts in 2014, are praising this more accessible location, which is centered equally for a show that attracted crowds from both Historic New Orleans and our State's Capitol, Baton Rouge, stating the location is a major advantage and should continue to produce record breaking attendance as the show grows.

It will be the charity event of the year again, as no profits will go to Poche Plantation. St James Parish residents, appointed to the Board of Trustees, will work to assure profits continue to be donated to charities and organizations in St. James Parish.

This event is held in St. James Parish, by the citizens of St. James Parish, for St. James Parish for visitors to enjoy!
