Heartfelt thanks are extended to all of the artists and buyers who supported the 2022 “Hearts for the Arts” online auction. Featuring 150 works by more than 40 artists, the auction raised funds to benefit the ArtWalk Passport weekends, scheduled for June 24-26 and August 5-7.   

The Eastport Arts Center is a ‘Partner in Art’ with the ArtWalk Passport project.  The weekends are a community-wide celebration of our rich arts culture Way Downeast, with live music, dance, storytelling, films, interactive art experiences and more.  New for 2022:  an outdoor contra dance with live band and caller in Eastport on June 25th, a mermaid parade and undersea ball in Eastport on August 6th and a Fringe Festival in Lubec on August 7th.  

Thanks again for sharing your Hearts!   View the entire “Hearts for the Arts” show online at:  www.eastportartwalk.org.
