Latest Class Forming at Medomak Arts
Storytelling and poetry writing is good for the writer and the reader. People like to hear stories and read poems that they as readers can identify with. Although writing groups can help veterans recover from war trauma, their purpose is to help individuals find themselves and not be seen as therapy for the writers. No such claim is made for the upcoming storytelling workshops at Medomak Arts, 13 Friendship St., Waldoboro.

Halloween Potluck and Scary Readings at Opera House

Preparations for Thursday, Oct. 26’s annual Halloween Potluck and Scary Readings event are underway.

The 90-minute 2017 movie, which took three years to film, is directed by filmmaker Miao Wang, who moved to the United States from China when she was 12.

‘Words & Music’ – The Songs of Hallett and Robinson
