SUMMARY:Artist - Kit Aroneau
DESCRIPTION:Opens Sunday 4pm with Reception \nI am a photographer and writer living on Bald Mt in Camden Maine. This affords me a birds-eye view of weather advancing toward and retreating from Camden and Rockport harbors. \nI often choose to shoot in the mystery of fog. For me\, it elicits a silence\, a quieting of the mind\, that makes my wanderings magical. \nSee more of Kit’s art on Instagram www.instagram.com/kitaroneau \n

SUMMARY:Artists - Barbara Materna\, Andrew St. John\, John and Tish Whipple
DESCRIPTION:Opens Sunday 4pm with Reception \n\nBARBARA MATERNA: After 20+ years as a technical writer\, Barbara turned her energy to designing and creating unique and unusual handbags and travel bags. \n \nThe BABS brand has been featured in the Providence Journal Style section\, Rhode Island Monthly\, Providence Monthly and was a “Best of Rhode Island” winner. The BABS brand includes Jack + Cookie (felted wool bags)\, Coastal Cruisers (map and chart bags) and WAXT (waxed canvas bags). \nAfter a couple of years sailing the Bahamas\, Barbara has rekindled the design flame and continues to design and create out of her studio in Essex\, MA. www.BABSetc.com \n  \n\n \n\n\n\nJOHN WHIPPLE: Paintings that appeal most to me have three qualities: beauty\, craft\, and intrigue. The measure of beauty is that I want to hang them on my wall and live with them. Craft means to me that they can’t be made by just anyone: they go beyond a photograph or a digital image; they are more intentional than a random bunch of lines or colors. \nIntrigue includes mystery\, humor\, emotion\, and an invitation to enter a different world. Emotion is the hardest part for me. As a person of a certain age\, I feel I should have something to say about emotions. Expressing them in a painting\, however\, is as hard as painting wind. Saying anything significant is an elusive goal for all of us. Yet we keep trying. \nI look for beauty in my own environment. The rocks and trees and water\, people and animals\, sky and seasons that we see every day are a microcosm of the larger natural world. Insights into the small part of the world that we inhabit apply to the universe beyond us. I look for inspiration from things that I experience in daily life. \n  \n\n\n\n\nANDREW ST. JOHN is a retired architect who spends his creative time depicting things that mean something to him\, mostly in pen and ink and watercolor. He’s looking forward to exploring new media. \n \n  \n\n \nTISH WHIPPLE: I’m a water colorist who enjoys seeing what color and water do on paper. It makes me happy.

SUMMARY:Speaker - Michael Lowenthal\, Place Envy: In Search of Belonging
DESCRIPTION:Belonging isn’t always something we inherit. It’s something we search for and\, hopefully\, find. Author Michael Lowenthal will read from and discuss his new essay collection\, Place Envy\, which traces a lifelong search for identity\, queer lineage\, and connection across cultures\, histories\, and the self. Through journeys that span continents and communities\, Lowenthal explores what it means to feel rooted—or unmoored—and how storytelling can bring us closer to truth. \n  \n\nMichael Lowenthal is the author of the novels The Same Embrace\, Avoidance\, Charity Girl\, and The Paternity Test and of the short story collection Sex with Strangers. \nHis writing has appeared in The New York Times Magazine\, The Boston Globe\, The Washington Post\, Ploughshares\, and many other publications. \nHis stories have been widely anthologized in such volumes as Lost Tribe: Jewish Fiction from the Edge and Best New American Voices. \nLearn more about Michael on his website www.michaellowenthal.com
