Crafters and Artisans
You'll find everything from beautiful pottery to sea-glass jewelry to smoked salmon among our 250 booths. Crafters and other vendors are on-site Saturday and Sunday.
Buy raffle tickets to win a kayak, and take home a piece of Down East Maine art from area artisans, some of whose families have been practicing their crafts for generations.
