MARC Artists
Exhibition Planned
To inaugurate our new Residency site and to celebrate
MARC's long history of artists' residencies on
the Island, the Board will host MARC
at 20, a one-week exhibition of
work by Artist Fellows from the past 20 years.
The show will be on view in the new studio space
on Monhegan from August 21 to August 27, just
prior to the beginning of the five-week Residency
August 28 to October 2.
The exhibition will mark
the first time that work by MARC Artist
Fellows has been shown together on Monhegan
Island. It is also an occasion for acknowledging
the Island 's important role, both as
a place of incomparable natural beauty
and as “host” to over 40 emerging Maine
artists who have qualified for the MARC
Artist Residency Program. Works of art
by more than 35 participating MARC artists
will be for sale, with part of the proceeds
being donated back by the artists to
support future residencies.
The Board
wishes to thank John and Winnie Murdock
for donating the studio space for the
period of the exhibition |
