The town came out in the rain on Friday the 13th of December to share the spirit of the holiday season! A big thank you to all that made it happen... our staff, Frank Burns, Stacey Leonardo, Kimberly Monson, Rick Lacey, and Charlie Orcutt. Our Volunteers, the Elves, the Winter Queens, Bob Potter (master of ceremonies), Jeanne Potter, Shane DiVita, Laurel Friedmann, Kate Aiello, Ashleigh Moro, Ruthie Viele, Michael Viera and Dianna Hampton Dowson. A special thanks to Lyme Old Lyme Middle school Band Director Carrie Wind, who organized over 40 kids to play and entertain an eager crowd. Thanks to our speakers, Devin Carney, Rich Shriver and Tim Griswold. Thanks to Lisa Carberg for getting the word out and a big thank you to our generous sponsors, Essex Savings Bank, Lyme-Old Lyme Chamber of Commerce, Beautigasm Makeup Artistry, Doug Hampton Dowson Photography, and Valley Railroad in Essex for lending us the fabulous Hauschild colllection.

Halloween was an amazing night at Lyme academy of Fine Arts celebrating “The Patch” painted pumpkins by the Lyme Old Lyme kids K-12. How can one place have so much talent? Teaching, that’s how. A big thank you to our Region 18 art teachers Will Allik, Adam Raiti, Jen Pitman, Thelma Halloran, and Joya Helander for inspiring these wonderful Halloween masterpieces. And a huge thank you to our Lyme Academy Halloween volunteers Charlie Orcutt, Bob Potter, Rick Lacey, Carol Holderman, Bruce and Joyce Wallace for a fun and seamless evening. And thanks to the volunteers who delivered mountains of candy.

Fall 2020 was the perfect time to find the secret entrances to the world of fairies!

Visitors looked carefully as they visited Lyme Street and Lyme Academy of Fine Arts to find Fairy Doors!

Thanks to Old Lyme Arts District for including the academy in this wonderful event!
