Outdoor Art Show & Music Festival kicks off this weekend

"

The Outdoor Art Show & Music Festival will take place this weekend. Each year, the two-day artisan event brings thousands of people to Setauket. Gallery North has been hosting the festivities for close to 60 years. Heavy flooding last month forced the gallery to close for several weeks for storm repairs. It reopened this week, just in time to host the festivities. "The only time we ever had to close the Outdoor Art Show & Music Festival was in 2020 due to the pandemic. So, this year, when we were faced with this challenge, we said no way, we are putting on the show," says executive director Ned Puchner. More than 100 local artists will be participating in the weekend festival. It runs from 10 a.m. from 5 p.m. "
