NORTH CONWAY NH – For 52 years, our small-but-mighty non-profit has brought dozens of fine artists to North Conway for a celebration of the arts. We are proud to announce the 53rd Annual Art in the Park will return to our iconic Schouler Park this fall: October 11 & 12, 2025. We are excited to leverage the leaf peeping season and the 3-day holiday weekend to create our most highly-attended festival yet. The festival will run from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday.
Art in the Park is unique from any other fair that pops up in the park— it is the largest event specializing in fine art which draws collectors and motivated buyers to our community. Fine artists from every medium travel from across our region to share their paintings, photography, drawings, mixed-media pieces, stained glass, quilted textiles, wood carvings, sculptures and more.
There are two ways to register as a participating artist:

NORTH CONWAY NH – AIDAN CANFIELD’S artistry infuse s a unique combination of Rock and Country influences from the sounds that he grew up on–a little bit of Bob Seger and Bruce Springsteen, a little bit of Kenny Chesney meets Zach Bryan. His heartfelt lyrics and melodies have struck a chord of relatability he’s witnessed on the road on support dates with Riley Green and, most recently, the Cameron Sacky Band.
When the pandemic hit in 2020, Aidan used the time to discover his passion for playing the guitar, and he started singing and writing songs. In two short years, he started growing a following on social media platforms and released his first single, “The Idea Of Me,” in April of 2022. Since then, Aidan has released six additional singles, an album and his music has nearly 3 million streams. Aidan’s heartfelt lyrics and melodies are what make his music relatable to his fans.
Featured in country music YouTuber and critic Grady Smith’s “Best Music Under the Radar of 2023,” Canfield’s growing popularity has also led to his first CMAFest performance on the Hard Rock Stage and a feature on the Tidal Wave Festival in Atlantic City.
