The Witches of Eastport

The Witches of Eastport returns! Founded by Joan Lowden of the Eastport ArtFests and continued for the second year in partnership with EAC, this year's festival brings a dazzling array of free, all-ages interactive experiences. Pumpkin carving, witches broom, mask and magic wand making.  Don't miss the hilarious Pumpkin Derby, then join the witches parade, with community dances led by the Shead High and EES Cheerleaders and the Eastport Senior Center Cardio Drummers!  The fun starts at noon downtown Eastport and ends with the Haunted Ball at the Arts Center.
