Giving artists time and space to create within a natural, rustic setting #hewnoaks
All gifts support our free residencies for artists - thank you!

Nov 28

Today is #givingtuesday, a moment to reflect and give back to organizations you hold dear. On this day premised on generosity, please help us continue Hewnoaks' 123-year-old legacy of hospitality to artists by making a donation through the link in the bio.

We have big aspirations for 2024, including developing a plan to acquire, renovate and map out a sustainable future for the historic Hewnoaks grounds and buildings. Your contributions can help us realize these dreams while we continue to offer an idyllic sanctuary to more than 45 artists a year to focus intensively on their craft.

Thank you for your consideration and for all your support in 2023!

SAVE THE DATE: Wild Light Exhibition and Open House | Saturday, August 12, 3-7pm

Announcing the 3rd installment of Wild Light, our signature one-day arts fest and exhibition held on-site at Hewnoaks! This year's edition is a three-way partnership between @greaterlovelllandtrust @lightsoutgallery and Hewnoaks, showcasing art that pays tribute to the lands and waters in our unspoiled corner of western Maine.

The exhibition will feature work by local artists and Hewnoaks former artists alongside a family-friendly array of sensory delights: fanciful installations, nature walks, musical peformances, refreshments, and more.

Come mingle, explore the property and enjoy some al fresco artwork!

Let's start the journey strong!

As the residency report linked below shows, Hewnoaks artists had a banner year in 2022 and we owe that success to our loyal community of supporters. But as we prepare to open our doors to the first residency cohort of 2023 tomorrow, we need your help again. Our expenses spike at this time of year as we clean, de-winterize and repair our facilities. Please help us cover those steep early-season costs so we can start the summer on the front foot and continue to provide a unique and nurturing space to artists from Maine and beyond.

Thanks for considering! If you're able to make a contribution towards our re-opening costs, please use the link in our bio.

Special thanks to @lasthouseproductions for designing the report!
