Held every year during Columbus Day weekend (early October), the festival features hundreds of arts and crafts dealers, various other vendors, musical entertainment, raffles, and food and refreshments. It is often the largest event for the town of Scituate; it brings in hundreds of people. The art festival is held in the center of town, closing down West Greenville Road up until it crosses Rt. 101. Parking is very limited, most often you can find a spot on the side of Rt. 116, Rt. 101 or Rt.6. For those passing through, it is better that you avoid the center of town entirely unless you are attending the art festival.
