Another nice weekend on the radar with the best day looking like Friday so far—here’s a couple of local events for music and art lovers. And a special Killer Road Trip for Friends of the Fur Babies with Woofstock!

Woofstock

Humane Society Waterville Area’s first annual Woofstock Festival will feature local bands, food trucks, and a beer tent from 12 p.m. to 9 p.m. with all ticket sales and merchandise proceeds going towards the Humane Society, as well as 10 percent of the proceeds from the vendors.

Lincoln Street Center Open Studios

Saturday, August 13 —Rockland

It may rain in the Midcoast on Saturday, so here’s a fine way to spend your afternoon. Lincoln Street Center will be hosting an Open Studio. Go check out the former high school turned art center and feel free to wander into the studios of more than six artists to chat about their work and process from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Hello Newman Rocks The Dock

Sunday, August 14—Rockland

Do you wish you could relive the ‘90s sometimes? Hello Newman, the premier alternative rock band from Maine will be gracing Archer’s on The Pier for rocking the dock Sunday afternoon. They’ll be playing from 2 to 5 p.m. Open to the public.

Note: Weekend Spotlight will be on hiatus for a month while I work on a local film production. See you in September!
