Celebrate the Bicentennial of Fort Jesup at Fort Fest 2022. Guests are invited to join us at Fort Jesup for the Annual Fort Fest Fundraiser hosted by the Friends of Fort Jesup. It will be a day of living history demonstrations, folk artists, and modern arts and wares. Vendors will be on site so guests are invited to come out and start their Christmas shopping early and local, while also enjoying historic demonstrations that will include black powder rifles, shuttle tatting, historic music, civilian camp sites, spinning, candle making, open hearth cooking demonstrations, and more. The evening will conclude with a Grand Garrison Ball from 6:30 - 8:30, a historic dancing experience, with period music and buffet.
