Paint the Port 2025 is happening on Friday, August 22nd! This annual community street paint party has become a cherished tradition in Freeport, bringing people of all ages together to transform downtown into a vibrant tapestry of color and creativity.

This year, proceeds from Paint the Port will continue to support the maintenance and upkeep of the Freeport Arts Plaza, ensuring it remains a dynamic space for community engagement. In addition, we are thrilled to introduce the inaugural Downtown Sculpture Walk—a new public art initiative that will bring inspiring sculptures by both renowned and emerging artists to the heart of our city. Chicago Avenue will be transformed into an open-air gallery, enriching Freeport’s cultural landscape and making art more accessible to all.
