We are going to start holding monthly salons. The idea is we bring in a photographer, they project their work in our cozy living room, give us the run-down and then we all talk about it. These events will be open to the public. If you are interested in showing us your work and having a discussion about it, or just want more information so you can come then please contact us!

It should be fun!

Upcoming salons will include some collective members.....

Trifecta Publications is looking for submissions for it's first issue. It sounds like a very conceptual and free form art journal. Guidelines are minimal, they just want your art! Fifty four copies of it to be exact.

Dead of it

We are now accepting applications for residencies!

We have great facilities and I know that this kind of set up is hard to find. If this interests you please send your info our way. And check out our website for more information on requirements, equipment etc.

This is the mill we live in...

This is the space we work in...

And we're not far from here....

A few years ago Charlotte Oestervang took part in the Christiania Research in Residence program (which, I should add currently has open call for submissions) and documented the Christiania residents with a large format Camera. The result is stunning, classic documentary portraiture.

Geoffrey Drew, a local Kennebunk Art teacher, has a great show up at a great space... the Kennebunk Free Library Exhibition room ("Hank's Room"). I'm a little late on posting this, as the opening was on the 8th of January, but it will be up for a while, so check it out.

We are bombarded with Maine tourism propaganda all year long, so I picked a few of the best "Maine Lighthouse" photos I could find...
