The annual fundraiser/art event, Art in the Square, at Boothbay Region Art Foundation is is full swing. Every week new paintings arrive and go up on the gallery walls. The community of artists and art collectors share in this special event and everyone who takes part can feel the goodness of sharing in this mission to reach others with fine art. Twenty-five dollars from each $100 painting sold goes directly into the student art and scholarship fund. 

The 2012 Art In The Square Holiday Show and Sale, now in its seventh year, wraps up the year in the true spirit of holiday giving. Come join the fun and celebrate art.
