Wilton's 3rd Thursday's

You may have heard of Wilton's 3rd Thursday's (3T) downtown events we put on last year...or maybe not? Every 3rd Thursday of the month from May-August we have crafters, farmer's market, live music, silent auctions, events for children and down town business's stay open a little later-to help bring more people to downtown Wilton. We run from 5:00-8:00pm. I am wondering if there are any artists in your group that may want to set up a 'table' along main street at any/all of this year's 3T events to display and/or sell their work? If so please have them contact me as soon as possible so I can add them to our lists. There is no charge for this-you will need to bring your own tables/displays though. I can be reached at staceydamon@netscape.net or at 207-645-7057. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks in advance.

Be Well,
Stacey

Farmington Photographer to Show at SugarWood Gallery

FARMINGTON, ME – Scott Perry of Farmington will be SugarWood Gallery’s featured Artist of the Month in September. An Open House Reception is planned for Friday, September 3 from 4 to 7 PM. The public is invited and refreshments will be available.

For several years Scott worked throughout Maine as a freelance photographer primarily for the Associated Press and the Maine Times. His photos have appeared in newspapers and magazines around the world including Newsweek, the New York Times, USA Today, and National Geographic Magazine. Scott enjoyed capturing bits of history on film and sharing it with others through the news media. However, he often found himself wanting to get more into his pictures than the normal window of view typical 35mm cameras could provide.

He currently works with digital cameras to capture wide landscape views of Maine, New Hampshire and beyond. He prints and frames his landscapes in his studio located in Farmington, Maine. They are available for purchase online and at selected art shows and galleries.

Scott’s goal is to create views within the confines of a picture frame that are so expansive and magnificent, they will make you feel you are at the place the picture was taken. He hopes his photography will rekindle your memories of a special place and help you share the beauty of that special place with others.
In addition to matted and framed archival prints, Scott has recently begun offering his prints on canvas that he wraps around a wood frame for hanging. "When I first heard about printing photos on canvas, I thought 'why would one want to do that? Canvas is for paintings.’ But then I tried it and I was surprised by the quality of the image and when I hung the gallery wrapped canvas print on the wall it looked great. It's just the image there without the distractions of mat, glass and frame."

SugarWood Gallery is a handcrafted fine furniture store and art gallery located at 248 Broadway in Farmington. Store hours are Monday through Friday 10:00 AM to 5:30 PM, and Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
