A SOPERTON TRADITION - The Million Pines Arts and Crafts Festival began in 1973, as Soperton Citizens Mary and Jack Pournelle worked alongside others in the community to bring a festival to the city. The event has been an annual event ever since, only cancelling because of the Hurricane Helene destruction in 2024. This year, the festival returns bigger and better than ever.
