Poets at the Window at Sunbury Shores

Online Event Anywhere you can connect to the internet, ME

Sunbury Shores is creating a window installation for displaying local poetry! Submit your poem to info@sunburyshores.org and we will select a collection to print for the public to enjoy! If you are looking for inspiration to get going, might we suggest the following: Create short phrases in your poetry that reach out to people as they pass; comfort them, make them think, share a thought that's stuck with you; or make poems that jump into people's pockets as they carry on through their day.

Cobscook Institute 10 Commissary Point Road, Lubec

Established students and professional artists are invited to register for an upcoming weekend of focused creative and artistic exchange in our pottery studio at the Cobscook Institute. By gathering and working together, we will celebrate our connection as artists, and explore our media in depth.

There will be no formal instruction during this session. Informal critiques may occur if participants desire. Likewise a collaborative project or technique may be explored should the group feel inclined. The atmosphere will encourage independent, focused work, interspersed with periods of verbal exchange around topics of art, inspiration, creativity, and execution of projects, as the need or inclination arises. The workshop will run on June 11 and 12 from 8:30 am to 3:00 pm. Register here.
