GLOUCESTER — The Gloucester Arts Festival announced it will celebrate its 10th anniversary in June, marking a decade of art, creativity and community in Gloucester.

Since its founding, the popular annual festival has featured hundreds of artists, engaged thousands of visitors, and highlighted the role of the arts in bringing people together, according to organizers. The anniversary year will honor the artists, volunteers, sponsors, and community members who have shaped the festival over the past ten years.

“This anniversary is a celebration of community,” said Shandie Covington, Festival Director. “For ten years, the Gloucester Arts Festival has been built by the artists who share their work, the volunteers who give their time, and the audiences who show up year after year. This milestone is about honoring that collective effort and the creativity it has fostered.”

The 10th anniversary campaign, “A Decade of Art,” will feature highlights from past festivals, artist spotlights, and community stories, alongside special anniversary branding integrated throughout the event.

Events kick off June 5. Tickets went on sale on Jan. 1.
