5 people and places to visit at the Pittenweem Arts Festival The sleepy fishing village of Pittenweem comes alive each August when hundreds of artists and art lovers descend on the East Neuk of Fife for the Pittenweem Arts Festival.

The library's Tales from the Cave is featured in The Courier's 5 people and places to see at the Pittenweem Arts Festival! It's not too late to swing by and catch a story or two!
