Summer Excursions with Adult Ed!

At 5 Town CSD Adult & Community Education this summer we are offering “Art Trail Maine” with artist and teacher Deb Vendetti.  Each Thursday trip affords approximately 3 hours to explore and create in a visually interesting location, followed by a relaxed lunch and an afternoon gallery visit. June 9 begins the series at Boothbay Harbor where the morning will be spent taking in the many beautiful scenes around the harbor.  Lunch will be at Taka on the Water, followed by a visit to Gleason Fine Art where the rich art history of coastal Maine has long been celebrated. July 21 features a trip to Northeast Harbor featuring visits to Asticou and Thuya Gardens. The lunch stop will be at the Asticou Inn, followed by a visit to the innovative and extraordinary Sammy Shaw’s Contemporary Jewelry. The final Art Trail Maine trip for 2022 will be to Bangor on September 29.  Here participants will experience the artistic vibe of a lively city, have lunch at one of the many downtown eateries, then visit the Zillman Art Museum of the University of Maine, one of the finest Modern and Contemporary galleries in the state. Participants are free to choose their artistic medium, whether painting, drawing or photography.
