HdG Art Show 2021: Hours, Location, Performances

HAVRE DE GRACE, MD — Those who go to the Havre de Grace Art Show this weekend can be part of the art. An interactive art project is one of the many new additions to the festivities, organizers say.

A make-your-own flag area will be among the offerings.

"It's kind of like an art-in-progress kind of thing," Cindy Height, organizer of the Havre de Grace Art Show, said. "They can do anything they want and as they finish it's put up on the line. Their art will be flying high" off the Promenade in Concord Point Park.
