On Saturday, June 14
Seamark Workshops will be part of the Lupine Festival at the DI/S High
School sponsored by the Deer Isle/Stonington Chamber of Commerce.
We will have our badge making machines up and running and hope everyone
will come by to make their own small piece of wearable artwork to commemorate
the day. We will also have colored chalks for sidewalk murals. Come
leave your mark at this second annual event! Summer info and schedules
will be available.
On Sunday, July 13,
join us for our annual trip from Stonington to Rockland via mail boat.
Approximately 40 people enjoy the two-hour trip with stunning marine
views. We have about four hours in Rockland to visit the Farnsworth
Museum and/or the North
Atlantic Blues Festival, have lunch and shop. Rain date is July
28.
From July
14-18, Seamark is co-sponsoring the first Island
Arts Camp with Opera House
Arts and the Reach Performing Arts Center. This camp will kick off
the Island Family Theater Arts Project a series of workshops and performances
designed to educate and entertain participants and audiences of all
ages. Funding for IFTAP has been provided by the Margaret Burnham Charitable
Trust and the Maine Community Foundation's Hancock County Fund. See
our programming pages for more information on workshops and the Opera
House's website for performance schedules.
On Sunday, August 17
from 4-6 p.m. at the Edgewood Farm on Pressey Village Road in Deer Isle,
Seamark will hold its annual fundraising event. This year we will be
auctioning off bowls created, decorated and/or altered by area artists.
This is a great chance to buy a piece from your favorite artist(s) and
support Seamark's programming throughout the year. Please come to this
social event/exhibition/silent auction complete with hors d'oeuvres
and treats made by the Seamark Board. Check here later in the summer
for a list of participating artists.
