Schoodic Arts for All

Join us for LALA GIRL, May 18th at 7pm

Join Lala on her journey from girlhood to enlightenment, as she dances, laughs, dreams and jumps full force into the beauty and mystery of life. Written and performed by Rivera Sun Cook and directed by Robin Aronson.
Endearing, enchanting, red headed, dance-theater powerhouse Rivera Sun Cook crosses color, age, and gender lines as she portrays thirty-plus characters with respect, love, and an utterly believable researched depth.

COMBS STUDIO SURVEY

Last year we were given a fabulous gift by long-time instructor, volunteer, and founding board member Doris Combs. Because of this gift, Schoodic Arts now has an opportunity to use this wonderful studio in Prospect Harbor for our programming and to share it with the community. We’d love to hear from you about what ways you think we should make the most of the Combs Studio. Thank you for your FEEDBACK!

FESTIVAL 2012

July 29th – August 12th.

As always, we will kick things off with our Silent Auction fundraiser, and enjoy performances from SAFA programs like the Schoodic Summer Chorus and our community Steel Pan Bands. We’ll end things on a high-note that lines up with the Winter Harbor Lobster Festival and features a Contra Dance with the Sheep Island Rovers on the 11th and our Festival Final Showcase on the 12th.

MEGAN LIGHT IN CONCERT

August 24th, 7pm at Hammond Hall

Nashville-based singer-songwriter and Winter Harbor native, Megan Light, returns to perform selections from recent recordings and unreleased material. “Megan writes dreamy indie-pop songs in which guitar and piano equally share the spotlight, featuring focused arrangements which never clutter the proceedings.” -Nashville Scene

Schoodic Arts for All at a Glance:

SCHOODIC ARTS FOR ALL is a non-profit organization that brings art and culture to the Schoodic Peninsula area and surrounding communities in Downeast Maine. Since 1999, we have provided music, art, dance, theatre, writing, crafts, poetry, sculpture, and fiber arts in performances and workshops at affordable prices. To encourage families to attend events together, children are admitted free to all 90+ performances.

Our Home:

SCHOODIC ARTS FOR ALL is happily located on the Schoodic Peninsula in Winter Harbor, Maine – home to one of the most scenic and untouched sections of Acadia National Park. Our office is situated in Hammond Hall, a nationally-registered historic landmark, on Winter Harbor’s Main Street. We have recently acquired (by way of a most generous gift) the Combs Studio in Prospect Harbor, where we have annually held workshops in the arts for our Summer Festival.

The mission of Schoodic Arts for All is to bring together and provide opportunities for people of all ages to experience and appreciate the arts.
