The Wiscasset Art Walk is set for 5 to 8 p.m. Thursday, July 26, throughout the village.
The evening will begin with a wine tasting at treats from 4 to 7 p.m. Food trucks selling fresh oysters and Mexican specialties will be available, along with a lemonade stand run by an enterprising 7-year-old who is raising funds for the Lincoln County Animal Shelter. The Married with Chitlins will play their country/blues/folk mix in this pop-up outdoor bistro.
The sidewalk attractions are many with Mehndi (traditional body painting with henna) by India-trained Krishnabai; a photo booth with dress-up props hosted by the First Congregational Church of Wiscasset; and an historical display of artifacts and costumes by the Lincoln County Historical Association. Magician Phil Smith will be entertaining those passing by.
The Maine Art Gallery, located on Warren St., will make an appearance in this season’s POP-UP Gallery on Main Street with selections from their new exhibit “Memories, Dreams, Reflections” by Joseph, Tony and Max Ascrizzi.
