The Lewiston Public Library, in partnership with ArtVan, will be offering in-person art programs.

Starting on September 10th, the programs will take place on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month from 3:30pm-5:00pm in the Children’s Department for children ages 5-14.

Make Art with ArtVan is free, open to the public, and no registration is required. All art supplies will be provided.

Program takes place on the 3rd floor of the Lewiston Public Library, in the Children’s Department. Children aged 5-8 must be accompanied by an adult.

ArtVan is a mobile art program that brings hands-on creative art opportunities for self-expression, personal growth, and fun. All of their projects aim to inspire art-making with a variety of materials to explore. ArtVan programs engage all age groups, encourage time outside and reduce screen time, help youth stay connected, diminish stress, and provide release for unvented expressions of emotions, such as loss and confusion.

ArtVan began in 2004 and has provided therapeutic art and strengths-based programs to under-resourced neighborhoods.

The Lewiston Public Library is located downtown at 200 Lisbon Street at the corner of Pine Street. More information on ArtVan programs is available by contacting the Lewiston Public Library at 513-3133 or LPLKids@lewistonmaine.gov.

Based on the hit Disney Channel Original Movies, Descendants: The Musical brings the world of Disney villains’ kids to life in a high-energy, fun-filled adventure. Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos — the children of Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Jafar, and Cruella de Vil — are invited to leave the Isle of the Lost and attend Auradon Prep alongside the children of Disney heroes.

With catchy songs and lots of heart, the teens must decide whether to follow in their parents’ evil footsteps or choose their own paths. A story of friendship, identity, and second chances, this musical is perfect for audiences of all ages.

Midcoast Youth Theater provides youth with meaningful, safe theatrical opportunities regardless of experience or financial means.
