Boothbay Harbor, ME – The Boothbay Region Art Foundation (BRAF) is excited to announce the return of its holiday-favorite exhibition: ART in the Square. This year, don't miss your chance to snag a unique, original artwork and support a great cause, starting Thursday, November 13, 2025 at the BRAF Gallery located at 1 Townsend Ave. in Boothbay Harbor.
ART in the Square is a vibrant showcase featuring creations by talented local artists (see a partial list below). The unifying rule? Every piece is painted, drawn, collaged or printed on a 12" x 12" square. Every square is priced at just $125, making them an affordable and meaningful gift —or the perfect addition to your own collection.
More than just great art, your purchase has a powerful impact: proceeds from ART in the Square fund BRAF's annual scholarship program, helping local high school seniors pursue their aspirations in the visual arts. It’s an easy way to own a piece of local creativity while investing in the next generation of artists.
