20th Annual Jade Festival …

… is fast approaching. Get ready for 3 full days of fun and frolic on the South Coast of Big Sur.

It will be held Friday, October 7th from noon to 6 pm; Saturday, the 8th from 10 am to 6 pm; Sunday, the 9th from 10 to 5 pm. It is to be held at the Pacific Valley School, across the street from Sand Dollar Beach. Live music all day, every day. Jade pieces for all pocketbook sizes, jewelry, art, and raffle.

Here’s this year’s postcard, available for sale only at the Jade Festival. Due to costs, number of people, and new technology, we are no longer sending out the postcards, but they will be for sale at the main booth and designed so that you can send them to friends, if you choose.
