The Greater Mystic Chamber of Commerce began the festival in 1957 when Milton Baline, cousin of Irving Berlin, and several other art lovers proposed the idea that Mystic pattern a festival after the famous Washington Square Festival in New York. Today it is one of the few remaining shows of its kind with two miles of exhibits featuring oils, watercolors, photography, sculpture, fine crafts and other media.
