The Wiscasset Art Walk tradition of making community art continues during the Thursday, July 28 evening, from 5 to 8pm. Musicians and woodworkers will stake out their spot on the sidewalk to hand-make percussive instruments for visitors to play.

When visitors come to Wiscasset Village, they’ll enjoy the beautiful paintings in the Village galleries. But slightly hidden are even more wonderful art pieces in the boutique shops throughout the Village.

After some initial showers, the sky cleared for a successful final Wiscasset Art Walk of the season on Thursday evening, Sept. 30.

Artist Susan Perrine was creating a garden structure from twigs on the sidewalk outside Wiscasset Bay Gallery. Perrine said she had numerous event-goers helping with the weaving throughout the evening.
