Great Photos: The return of the big Bay Shore Arts Festival

The Bay Shore Arts Festival kicked off Sunday with blocks of vendors selling food, sweet treats and apparel, and a full day of live performances at the bandshell.

This is the first time in three years the event has happened due to the pandemic.

And despite a rainy morning, the sun prevailed, providing a warm summer day, perfect for families in need of ice cream and friends sharing a few beers.
