Seventeen artists of the Pemaquid Group of Artists will exhibit their diverse styles, mediums, and viewpoints at Damariscotta River Grill Jan. 13 to Feb. 24. An opening reception will be held Wednesday, Jan. 15 from 4-5 p.m., which will include the option of staying for a prix fixe dinner at 5 p.m. for $22, with a trio of wine pairings for $8.
In the spirit of community giving, a portion of the dinner proceeds will be used to fund a scholarship for a Lincoln Academy student pursuing an art education. This promises to be a fun evening to meet the artists, sample delicious food, and support an emerging artist at Lincoln Academy.
The 17 artists exhibiting work include Barbara Applegate, Deb Arter, Diane Dolan, Peggy Farrell, Sarah Fisher, Kay Hannah, Kathleen Horst, Hannah Ineson, Will Kefauver, Jan Kilburn, Sally Loughridge, Judy Nixon, Paul Sherman, Cindy Spencer, Liliana Thelander, Kim Traina, and Bob Vaughan.
