Naturally Lamoine Art Show

 

As part of the Lamoine 150 Summer Festival Week, the Lamoine Conservation Commission is sponsoring a virtual art show centered on Lamoine’s natural resources. Knowing that Lamoine is blessed with many talented, creative citizens and a wealth of wildlife and natural beauty, we are inviting Lamoiners of all ages to submit a good quality digital photograph of one piece of their own creation whose subject is a wild Lamoine landscape or plants and animals found in our town. Works representing all creative media are welcome—painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, collage, or any other manner of representational art. In marking the 150-year history of our town during which time much has changed, the Conservation Commission would like to celebrate that which endures—the land we share with other life forms.

Art show entries meeting standards for subject and image quality will be posted on the Lamoine 150 Facebook page as part of the Summer Festival Week celebration in August. Some entries may be displayed in public spaces in town at the discretion of the Conservation Commission and participating artists.

To enter the art show, please email one good quality photograph of your piece on the theme of Lamoine’s landscape or natural resources to Lamoine Conservation Commission Chair Larissa Thomas at [email protected] with “Naturally Lamoine Art Show” in the subject line. Please attach the high-resolution image with your name as the filename, and include the following in the body of the email message: your name, age (for those under 18), the title of your piece, the medium of the piece, and one sentence describing it. One entry per Lamoine resident, please. Art show submittals are due no later than 5pm Friday, July 30, 2021. We very much look forward to seeing the many ways Lamoine’s natural beauty can be conveyed in visual arts.
