If you're searching for something truly unique, then make your way to the Virginia Beach Spring Craft Market. This festival, held every March, welcomes the warmer season with an incredible selection of items that include fine arts, hand crafted jewelry, wood, glass, photography, candles, woven baskets, clothing, toys, folk art and specialty food, among many other items. The event happens at the Virginia Beach Convention Center from Friday through Sunday and its efforts benefit the work of the Food Bank of Southeastern Virginia.

Gallop your way to a truly fun outdoor experience when you visit the East Coast Equestrian Training Center in Virginia Beach. Learn from the experts about how to properly ride a horse as well as all the other interesting and necessary information that is needed to ensure a safe and fun ride. And, the center is only seven miles from the closest beach, so you can plan to enjoy a relaxing (and memorable) horseback ride along some of Virginia Beach's most scenic stretches of coastline.

The Contemporary Art Center of Virginia is a popular destination for both artists and art lovers of all ages. Not only is it a place where art is celebrated and highlighted with due respect, but it is also a wellspring of inspiration and encourages creativity in many ways. Of course, the many famous paintings and other pieces that are housed here are quite noteworthy, but the museum also offers classes, lectures and seminars that are all designed to foster a deeper appreciation for art and all that it offers.
