Ballyhoo Festival — Local services in Gulf Shores

Good evening. Ballyhoo Fine Arts and Cultural Festival was my very first serious festival. Although the weather was cooler than usual on Saturday and very windy on Sunday I found the event a lot of fun. I learned so much. I made some forever friends. Also, as a serious added bonus.. I was asked to submit 4 of my paintings to the Kentuck Festival in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. That festival was a long term goal of mine and bless Patty one of the leaders of the festival came by my tent and asked me to submit 4 specific paintings as soon as possible. Then not an hour later, a lady from Mississippi Market held in Tupelo, Mississippi in May, asked me to submit some of the same paintings. She gave me her cell and email and said to submit as soon as I got home. Then, as I was getting ready to pack up a young woman came to my table and gave me explicit instructions on how to triple my business using social media. I mean.. I sold three important pieces and three small paintings. That was so very important to me. However, being in a position to meet the three ladies who have given me a chance to submit my work on a very large stage is invaluable. I have already been accepted to the Mississippi Market being held May 10 in Tupelo, Mississippi. I have had my paintings professionally photographed and am ready to submit to Kentuck. I am over the moon. I give Ballyhoo Festival 5 serious stars as I was allowed to participate first and then because of that acceptance, two serious offers for participation in this year. Thank you so much for allowing me to be a participant in the 2025 Ballyhoo Fine Arts and cultural Festival. 5 stars...

We fought with all our hearts and the evil one told us lies and convinced us to fight against one another. #IAmCherokee , the #CreekNation is my family. We were called #WhiteSticks because we choose to believe #AndrewJackson ‘s peace and fought against our brothers the #Redsticks . When we all were betrayed, by these powers of darkness in high places, our brothers labeled us #GoingSnake because we went with the snake and believed his lies to our own end. I am #TheStolenHorse from the #CherokeeNation. Stolen Horse, is pronounced Soquli UnoSgisv (So Woe Lay Uno Ski Sa). I am a citizen of two tribes/nations of God’s People. I am the watchmen on Mount Ephraim who says, “Come! Let’s Go to Zion and meet Our God & Our Messiah/Mahdi, His Christ!”

My Ancestor Jacob wrestled with God and was found worthy! God blessed him and said his people would become a great and mighty nation. He gave Jacob a new Name; He called him Israel. Israel’s youngest Son Joseph is my lineage. I still wear the rainbow 🌈. Everywhere I go and remember The Promise of the Great I Am! The blessing of Ephraim is mine and I alone claim it. I am calling all of God’s People to come back to Him and serve The Great I AM.

I Am Michael, the man who stands for God’s Chosen People. The Officer of The Peace for All Citizens of The Kingdom Of Heaven. I speak the Holy Words of The Great I Am for All who will listen to His Words and obey His Laws.

Peace To You My Friends, Have No Fear & Be Strong. Our God, Christ Yeshua and the entire Angel Army are on the way now. Prepare The Way for Our Great King!!!

Peace, Love & God’s...

I noticed the "owner" of the festival responded to other feedback but never responded to my feedback. Why did I not find this festival? I see it is on again but no need for me to try to find it if there are no signs directing people to the festival. Here it is 2025 and no info on this festival. Is it private?

I am here and there is not one tent at this park!!

So, where are they?

Seems like other people found the Ballyhoo Festival except me. There were no signs, no tents, no nothing! With gas prices over $3.00 per gallon, I wasted my time, wasted my gas, and am very disappointed. I drove to Gulf State Park using Google maps to 20115 Hwy 135. Which is shown as the location for the Ballyhoo Festival. That road circled through the swamp back to Hwy 59. I ended up where I started. No...
