ABOUT
Montevallo is often recognized for the carvings of Tim Tingle in Orr Park. Each year thousands of visitors come to the park to enjoy these tree carvings. Over 50 carvings line the walking path along scenic Shoal Creek. It is a perfect venue to host a festival celebrating wood carving and other wood working crafts. This is the genesis for the Tinglewood Festival.
The Tinglewood Festival is a free (no admission charge) one day annual event held in Orr Park on the Saturday after Labor Day. This Festival is a signature event for the City of Montevallo. The Festival is organized by the Montevallo Chamber of Commerce, Montevallo Main Street, and the Montevallo Arts Collaborative.
