First Friday Art Nights
Friday, July 10 - 4pm - 7pm
Kick off summer with First Friday Art Nights, our monthly celebration of creativity, community, and the joy of making art together. Each First Friday transforms the Machias Arts Center into a lively outdoor‑indoor arts experience featuring local artists, live music, great food, and hands‑on activities for all ages.
Stroll through artist booths, watch live demonstrations, try your hand at creative projects, and explore a dedicated kids’ art area designed to spark imagination. Whether you’re here to browse, create, listen, or simply soak in the atmosphere, there’s something for everyone.
These evenings are all about bringing our community together to celebrate local talent and shared creativity — and admission is always FREE.
