Student Environmental Art Opening
Maine Coastal Islands Art Gallery will feature student art reflecting nature’s beauty and illustrating the effects of climate change. The art opening will be on Friday, April 14, 2-4 p.m. at the Maine Coastal Islands NWR Visitor Center, 9 Water St. in Rockland.
We welcome students from North Haven Community School on North Haven Island. Students exhibiting participate in the school’s Offshore Year course that offers an integrated, place-based experience in environmental science and sustainability. A focus is how a changing climate affects the Gulf of Maine and coastal communities. Students will be present to share their stories.
LEAPS of Imagination, now celebrating its 10th year of supporting art in many midcoast schools, also has an exhibit representing student work over the years.
These exhibits will be up through the end of May and can be viewed Monday through Friday, 8 AM – 4:30 PM. For more information, contact info@mainecoastislands.org or call 594-0600 x5114.
