Thanks to our many volunteers and supporters, hundreds of visitors enjoyed a fine art show and sale, a tiny and donated art gallery, bake sale, art vendors, local organization tables, face painting done by Lynnfield High School students, raffles, a silent auction, and performances by the Swamptones and POMtastics.
