Caravan has been popping up since 2020, born out of necessity and out of the fire of the pandemic, the group said in a prepared release. From painters, photographers, potters, printmakers, illustrators, holistic skin care, candles, leather, glass, wood artists, to seamstresses, confections, toy makers and upcyclers, the lineup is always evolving, with a focus on quality and uniqueness.

Food vendors at the artist market will include Schutty’s Seafood from West Bath, Reverie Coffee house from Brunswick and Bath, Winter Hill Farm from Freeport, and Downtown Charcuterie from Brewer.

Caravan Artist Market is run by Nikki Pilgrim.

“I am a one woman show that organizes all of Caravan’s events,” Pilgrim wrote in an email. “[A]s a feverishly working Maine artist, I wanted to create a platform to share my work but also one that lifts up my fellow artists [and] friends.”
