Boothbay Harbor, ME - Boothbay Harbor Fest will celebrate its 4th annual this September with a long list of exciting additions, beginning with the first ever poster competition. The contest is free to enter and all are welcome to submit their artwork for consideration as the official 2015 poster. Contest details can be downloaded at www.boothbayharborfest.com and the deadline for submission is March 31.

The competition is part of a major event making its Harbor Fest debut this year. The Stroke of Art event will invite a select group of Plein Air artists to visit {and paint} the Boothbay peninsula during Harbor Fest. The artists will stay for seven nights (9/7-9/14) as the guests of event sponsors, Harborfields Waterfront Cottages. A variety of ‘Paint Outs’ will take place throughout the week, followed by public receptions at various local establishments, where artwork will be on display and available for sale. The event will conclude with a Meet the Artists Jazz Brunch at Harborfields Waterfront Cottages on Sunday, September 13.

The First annual Brew Cluster: Harbor Fest kicks off early this year with a creative new event at the Boothbay Craft Brewery (BCB) on Memorial Day Weekend. Each year the BCB crafts a limited edition Harbor Fest Ale for the festival. This year they have decided to invite their craft beer friends into the brew house to assist in crafting the 2015 ale AND design the label! There is an entire weekend of fun planned for an unforgettable summer kick off party! Tickets are on sale now at www.boothbayharborfest.com and the Watershed Tavern. 

In addition to the new events, several enhancements have been made to existing Harbor Fest events that promise to raise the bar on visitor experience and participant revenue potential. (Major events: A Taste of Local Flavor, Live Music Marathon, 5k & Half Marathon, Fishin’ For Fashion Show). 

Festival Sponsors: Maine Magazine, Portland Radio Group-WCLZ, WMTW-Channel 8, Harborfields Waterfront Cottages, Boothbay Craft Brewery, Rocktide Inn & Restaurant, Boothbay Harbor Region Chamber of Commerce, COCO VIVO Art for Living, Spruce Point Inn, Boothbay Register and Boothbay Region YMCA.
