One of the most respected and popular Art Festivals in Maine is the annual Freeport Fall in the Village Art Festival, organized by the Freeport Merchants Association and centered at Discovery Park and the Freeport downtown village. This juried event brings together over a hundred of the most talented in several categories. Included are two and three-dimensional art, sculpture, mixed media and photography.
