Bedford Day

Every September the Bedford Arts and Crafts Society participates in Bedford Day, marked by a celebration of the people and groups that make Bedford vibrant and a special place to call home. The festivities include a colorful parade; an outdoor fair with vendors’ and organizations’ booths; and the Bedford Day Regional Art Show, sponsored by BACS. It’s a day of music, dance, food, and fun for people of all ages.

Artists from Bedford and towns beyond are invited to participate in this year’s Regional Art Show. The show offers a great opportunity to exhibit and sell art and craft work. The show will take place on Saturday, September 21, 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., at the Town Center building (the “Yellow Building”), 12 Mudge Way. See the art show entry form for more information.
