Every spring Main Street Bath sponsors a public art display called Banners Over Bath. Anyone can pick up a canvas for a small fee and paint a banner to go with that year’s theme. The banners are then displayed downtown on the lamppost to brighten up the downtown during the rainy, sometimes muddy, spring in Maine. This year’s theme celebrates Bath’s status as one of ten semi-finalists in the national Great American Main Street competition – a competition which we won! I took a walk downtown and took a few pictures to show you but you can also see the banners here or, better yet, take a trip to Bath and see them in person.
