Jubilee Festival of Arts in Daphne
The Jubilee Festival of Arts is understood to be an annual arts and crafts festival associated with Daphne, Alabama, a city nicknamed The Jubilee City for its connection to the Mobile Bay jubilee phenomenon. The festival's apparent official web domain had expired at the time of this research, raising uncertainty about whether the event continues to operate under this name.
Daphne, Alabama sits on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay and has adopted the nickname The Jubilee City in recognition of its connection to the Mobile Bay jubilee, an unusual and locally celebrated natural phenomenon in which oxygen-depleted water periodically pushes crabs, shrimp, flounder, and other marine life into shallow water along the shore, allowing residents to wade out and gather seafood by hand.
