RAIN UPDATE

LEWISTON — From 5-9 p.m. Friday, July 26, Art Walk Lewiston Auburn will take place on downtown Lisbon Street. As part of the event, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. a picnic-type meal gathering known as Diner en Blanc will be held, followed at 6 and 7 p.m., by flash performances of Come, and Back Again, part of the Bates Dance Festival.

Diner en Blanc first took place 25 years ago in Paris, setting a legacy that has reached worldwide acclaim. The original event was an elegant outdoor dinner picnic where attendees dressed to impress in white.

UPDATE: Due to expected rain, the Diner en Blanc picnic, Bates Dance Festival performances, and String Ensemble have been moved to the Lewiston Public Library, 200 Lisbon Street.

Forage Market will be selling baskets loaded with picnic favorites.

At 8 p.m., Phil Yates & The Affiliates will perform at She Doesn’t Like Guthries, 115 Middle Street.
