COMING SOON: A spellbinding new novel set in the Irish countryside from Tana French.
OUT NOW: The behind-the-scenes story of the provocative play, the groundbreaking film it became, and how two iconic stars changed the image of marriage forever.
OUT NOW: A propulsive collaborative novel with an unusual twist: each character in this diverse, eccentric cast of New York neighbors has been secretly written by a different literary voice.
The Camden Public Library is pleased to announce another year of our Annual Fall Harbor Arts and Books Fairs on July 6 & 7 and October 5 & 6, 2024. The fairs takes place in Camden’s historic Harbor Park and Amphitheatre, and on the street that passes through the park, at the head of Camden Harbor. Exhibitors will display their work in standard 10×10 tents. We welcome you to the salty air and intimate surroundings of our Harbor Park and Amphitheatre during the times of year when the town of Camden is bustling with tourists — all here to enjoy the ocean views and many cultural and artistic events in the area.
Vendor applications will be available through the Zapp application portal beginning on January 1, 2024.
Information for the SUMMER show can be found here.
Information for the FALL show can be found here.
Camden on Canvas is an annual plein air painting fundraiser for the Camden Public Library. Over the weekend of July 19-21 twenty artists will work on location to paint midcoast Maine, building up to a live auction where each artist submits one newly finished painting. Artists receive 50% of the sale price, with the other 50% being a donation to support the Camden Public Library. Camden on Canvas weekend is a celebration of the library, the arts, and the town of Camden.
