Participating shops in the village will offer free raffle tickets for a drawing for dining at one of these Wiscasset-area restaurants: Water Street Kitchen and Bar, Water’s Edge and Montsweag Restaurant.
The Nickels Sortwell House, a historic New England property built in 1807, will offer guided tours through the first floor of the house, decorated for the season. Advance reservations are required.
A pop-up Holiday Gift Shop in the Nickels Sortwell barn on Federal Street will offer artisan-made selections.
Wreaths Around the Holidays, featuring decorated wreaths by local businesses, will be on display in the barn; visitors are encouraged to vote for People’s Choice. After Marketfest, Toys for Tots will present the wreaths to families in need of holiday cheer.
