The festival takes place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. It’s a rain or shine event and free to the public. “Since opening Jesup Hall in 2017, we have begun a love affair with the downtown area and are committed to taking part in events that strengthen the commerce and culture of Westport,” Taibe said. _____________
