Pembroke Arts Festival 2015
The 48th  Pembroke Arts Festival will be held on Saturday August 8th and Sunday August 9th on the Pembroke Town Green.   In keeping with tradition, you will see the iconic tent on our verdant Town Green, Which, luckily seems to actually be green this year! Under the tent you will find the “Young Artists Gallery†and the Artist-in-Action. Around the large tent, please find an array of crafters offering their wares for purchase. The Harry Woods bandstand shall be the home to  exciting live performers who shall entertain you all with wild abandon all weekend long! Inside the Community Center, you will find the centerpiece of the Festival, the juried exhibit. Having the juried show inside the Community Center has proven to work out wonderfully over the last few years and we are pleased to continue this latest tradition.
