Community Calendar

Mondays, January 12th, 19th, and 26th, 1 PM - 4 PM in the Kaleidoscope Studio at ArtWaves community arts center in Bar Harbor.

Join us for an intro/ intermediate impressionist landscape painting series.

Painting will be done on a 16x20" canvas board with acrylic paints of a sunrise view from the top of Cadillac Mountain.

We will work with BIG and GESTURAL strokes focusing on color relationships unique to Mount Desert Island. All materials and instructions provided.

The show opens with the first era of space exploration in the late 1960s and early 1970s. We see what that era of landers and orbiters taught us about our nearest neighbor including the discovery of the Moon’s origin, composition, structure and the accessibility of raw materials on its surface.

Starts February 2nd (Mondays from 1:30PM-4:30PM for 6 weeks).

Brush up on your skills and follow up on what was learned in Wheel Throwing Part One. (New students are welcome if they can throw a three-inch cylinder.)

We will review centering and throwing a cylinder and then proceed to making different bowls, lids, bottles, plus trimming with a chuck and glazing. Also covered will be handles and various spouts. The instructor can demonstrate most things students are interested in or curious about. Bring questions and wear old clothes.

For students who have taken one of our beginner level ceramic series or a similar course elsewhere.

Non-members: $250 for 6 weeks. Members: $200.

Fee does not include materials. Clay and glaze can be purchased from the instructor.

NOTE: This series will be held in our new location [opening in early February 2026] at 138 Bayview Street, Yarmouth, ME.
