YARMOUTH — Seventyfour Maine artists from South Berwick to Dover-Foxcroft will exhibit 163 pieces of their work at the fifth annual Yarmouth Art Festival.

The juried show, featuring painting, sculpture, photography, etching and digital media, will be held Oct. 16-19 at St. Bartholomew’s Episcopal Church at 396 Gilman Road, about a mile from Cousins Island.

The show will run Wednesday, Oct. 16, through Friday, Oct. 18, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday, Oct. 19, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. An artists’ reception, including music and refreshments, will be held Thursday from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Admission will be free for both the festival and the reception, with donations accepted. All artwork is for sale; credit cards, cash and checks are accepted.

John Ford’s stories from his long career as a Maine game warden are offered with humility and good humor, and demonstrate an abiding affection for the land, creatures, and quirky characters of Maine. Ford is an appealing character, a great storyteller, and he’s funny.
