Falmouth Memorial Library is pleased to announce that Illustration Institute's The Great State of Illustration in Maine will be on display at the Library from November 8, 2025, through January 31, 2026. This exhibition celebrates the rich, diverse cultural heritage of over 80 Maine-connected illustrators such as Ashley Bryan, Barbara Cooney, Dahlov Ipcar, Melissa Sweet, Chris Van Dusen, N.C. Wyeth, and more. The Great State of Illustration in Maine will showcase illustration as an art form in the very place where books are easily and publicly accessed.

“Now and Then,” a show of paintings by Camden resident Nina Holland, will be on exhibit in the upper and lower levels of the Rockport Public Library Dec. 2, 2025 - Jan. 29, 2026. The display is a retrospective of Holland’s work, spanning her 65-year career as an artist.

Trained as a painter, Holland is also known as an accomplished weaver and craftsperson. Her work has been exhibited country-wide, including five venues in New York City. She has won several awards in juried shows including a purchase prize and alcove show at New Mexico State Art Museum in Santa Fe.

In the 1970s, she published numerous articles and three books – two about weaving and one about quilting. She taught at Evansville University and North Country Community College.

Nina Holland plans to donate all proceeds from the sales of her artwork in the Rockport Library show to International Rescue Committee, rated a four-star charity on Charity Navigator.

Begin the year with a gentle reset designed to nourish your energy, calm your mind, and reconnect with your sense of inner harmony through the grounding wisdom of the chakras. In yogic anatomy, chakras are the energetic hubs that weave together our physical, mental, and emotional worlds, guiding how we move, feel, and connect. This New Year offering is an invitation to soften into stillness, listen inward, and honor your body’s need for warmth, spaciousness, and care.

We’ll open with grounding breathwork and a guided chakra meditation, creating a cozy container for reflection and alignment. From there, you will be guided into a slow, intentional Restore-based chakra practice, blending gentle movement and supported postures to ease tension, release stagnation, and open areas in need of attention and flow.

After the restorative practice, you’ll transition into the Recovery Cove for a deeply soothing Sauna Glow experience - a warm, meditative immersion that supports detoxification, nervous-system regulation, and the integration of the chakra work. The heat and stillness of the sauna offer space to further unwind, and welcome renewal from the inside out.

This workshop aims to leave you grounded, nurtured, and connected as you step into the year ahead.
