a round up of Maine art news, openings, shows + virtual exhibitions
|
June 17, 2022 Dear art-loving friends, Is there anywhere as sweet and wonderful as Maine in mid-June? The weather has been incredible and I have never seen so many colorful lupines on the roadsides. I have just personally delivered our 2022 guides to all our advertising galleries, studios and museums statewide. Driving the lovely backroads of Maine these days is a vision of every shade of green. The anticipation and enthusiastic reception for the new guide has been inspiring and uplifting. The colorful cover by David Driskell and the fine over all print job is drawing high praise. I’m also happy to report many galleries and studios experiencing brisk early art sales. The June 17 Cafe des Artistes opens on Monhegan with the Island Inn ‘s solo exhibition and artist’s reception for Joan Brady. There are many wonderful shows happening as you scroll down our Cafe newsletter. Enjoy the tour! |
