The Village Canoe

2019-2020 Lecture Series with speaker Chris Battaglia. Open to the public with a suggested donation of $10.

Join us for a presentation about Maine’s first floating artist residency: The Village Canoe. In late summer of 2019, ten artists paddled in two 30’ canoes down the Penobscot River and out to Penobscot Bay, camping and making work as part of this dual art-residency and canoe expedition. Witness the scenes and people that inspired these artists to re-think familiar Maine landscapes as we journey from Bangor to Brooklin, along the Penobscot River Paddling Trail and Maine Island Trail, exploring themes of wilderness and community along the way.
