Description:
Newspaper clipping. From the Bangor Daily News dated Wednesday, July 27, 2005 Regional B5. Article is titled "Art Show, sale to aid island museum, cultural center" A portion of the text in the article reads " Organizers have high hopes for Thursday's one-day art exhibit and silent auction at the Neighborhook House in Northeast Harbor, which will feature artworks inspired by the island's rock-bound beauty." "I think it's going to be a real fun time for everyone," Wini Smart, artist and president of the Great Cranberry Island Historical Society, said last week. The article goes on to say, "some of the better-known expressionist artists whose work will be displayed include C. Scott White, William Kienbusch, Carl Nelson and Dorothy Eisner." "Two of Nelson's oil paintings will be auctioned off alongside works by present- day island artists Ashley Bryan, Smart, Gail Cleveland, Sue Hand and David Little, among others. Jewelry by island artists Lisa Hall and Sam Shaw will go on the block, too, and will be joined by handmade quilts, crafts and a plethora of gift certificates. If the fundraising for the $375,000 refurbishment of the historical society's Cranberry House is successful, the island will be even more lively. Plans are under way to turn the old wooden structure into a combination museum and a place for small theater, muscial events, art workshops and a cafe'. Last year, $139,000 was raised for the project. Smart said she hopes that the coming art auction will provide an additional $50,000." See picture of item #1595 for complete article. [show more]
