Marblehead Safety first Festival of Arts postponed MARBLEHEAD — For the first time in its history, the Mar- blehead Festival of Arts, like the Olympics, has been put off until next year. This annual festival takes place during the July 4 holiday. The all-volunteer event features a champagne reception, art exhibits, live music and the screening of films. The 55th annual Marblehead Festival of Arts will be held in July 2021. However, two events have not been canceled. Two art schol- arships awarded to graduating seniors will occur. The deadline to apply has been extended to April 29. And the Cod Auction, which is held entirely online, will go forward. For the Cod Auction, local artists paint or decorate a cod- shaped piece of wood. Auction proceeds go toward the schol- arships and basic expenses of running the festival. The Bid- ding for Good auction is held on the MFoA website, a link for which will be found at www. marbleheadfestival.org. The auction usually starts in May ITEM PHOTO | SPENSER HASAK and runs through the end of A man rides his bike through Lynn Common while wearing a protective face mask. the festival.
