Arts. Boats. Yachts.
Art demonstrations, interesting stories by boat builders, artists and artisans, food and drink … yes it’s time for the Lincoln Arts Festival’s mid-August Arts & Yachts Exhibition and Sale Aug. 10-12!
The three-day event, held at Hodgdon Yacht Services on Southport Island ,kicks off on Thursday, Aug. 9 with a reception and preview from 5-7 p.m. Harpist Suki Flanagan will perform and many of the artists will be in attendance – and there’s always a good story or two about the work in the show.
