Children are welcome at the Witches of Eastport festival! Restarted by Eastport ArtFests in 2023, the Witches of Eastport festival has been designed with families in mind.

Every art activity and downtown activity is offered at no cost and there will be plenty of giveaways for participants to bring home (downtown businesses will be open with thematic goods available for sale). No vendors or information tables are present - just people having fun together and enjoying the season!

As this is the first year EAC is organizing the festival, we'll have some new surprises and additions being incorporated into both Friday (10/30) and Saturday (10/31). Stay tuned!
