Welcome to the 2026 Norway Maine Arts Festival! We are excited to foster a space where the greater community can come together to participate, learn, and support the Maine arts community. Art has proudly been a part of Norway’s downtown history since 1967. The Norway Maine Arts Festival celebrates art and community in the foothills of Western Maine and across the state. The festival showcases artisans of all kinds through art and craft vendors, live demonstrations, performances, keynote speakers, musicians, and farmers, all set within the historic buildings of downtown Norway. ​ This year, the Norway Maine Arts Festival is on Saturday, September 12th. Vendors will be tabling from 10 AM to 4 PM with more event going into the evening. We are stregthening beloved elements of the festival, including juried fine arts and crafts vendors, outstanding performers and musicians, as well as local businesses and non-profits that have been integral to this event. Together, we will celebrate the diverse creative and technical talents of Mainers.
