Held on the Library’s expansive front lawn and inside the library, visitors will enjoy two full days of music, food, activities, and the opportunity to view and purchase artwork from over 60 regional artisans including painters, photographers, sculptors, custom jewelry makers, fiber and glass craftspeople, woodworkers, and metalworkers.
Festival proceeds assist the Plymouth Public Library Foundation in providing the Library with technology and landscaping improvements, supporting the Library’s Literacy Program of Greater Plymouth and also funding its many cultural, artistic and educational programs.
