Aside from parking costs ($10/day) ALL the shows at the Lowell Folk Festival are free, and awesome. Lowell Folk Festival There's also some delicious food - which costs money - but is usually on the cheap and DELICIOUS. I highly recommend the Nigerian Church's food tent if you go!
Lowell Heritage State Park. Many of the museums charge entry fees, obviously, but the walk through the gardens and art districts are fun to do without spending money, or spending very little money (mainly for refreshments). Kerouac park, right in the downtown area, is small, but nice if you like Kerouac.
Lowell-Dracut-Tyngsboro State Forest has some great trails to walk through. My only warning is to bring bug spray like WOAH. It's where all the mosquitoes live.
