The Strawberry Festival will be joined on the Square by the Nickel Plate Arts HATCH Fest and the Noblesville Juneteenth celebration.

The Strawberry Festival is a Noblesville tradition, bringing families and friends back each year for homemade shortcake topped with strawberries, ice cream, and whipped topping. Profits support local nonprofits as a way for the patrons and the St. Michael’s congregation to make a difference.

“It’s all about community,” according to Rev. TJ Tetzlaff, Priest at St. Michael’s. “This event draws our church members together for a cherished annual Noblesville tradition while supporting vital community nonprofits. St. Michael’s church focuses on building community through faith, fellowship, and giving back. We love working side by side to make this event happen.”

St. Michael’s also has a donation garden at the church, providing fresh produce each week to the White River Food Pantry.

This Strawberry Festival is held in conjunction with the Nickel Plate Arts HATCH Fest, formerly known as the Maker Faire. Artisans, makers and craftspeople from Noblesville and surrounding areas will have amazing one-of-a-kind creations to sell, and area nonprofits and businesses will be on display around the Courthouse Square with activities, demonstrations, performances and more.

The entire downtown square will be filled with activity and celebration, bringing the community together for a very special day.
