A MidWinters Night Dream Group Art Show...

Come by and check out the Gallery, meet the Artists and their beautiful pieces of ART that have a magical winter theme. Maine is known for lots of snow and starry winter nights, with the sound of ice cracking on the rivers and ponds. These Artists have captured the essence of winter in this far northern part of the world. We are looking forward to seeing you on the big night.

Midwinter's Night Dream Art Exhibit...

The Chocolate Church Art Gallery

Opening Reception Friday, January 20th from 5 to 7:PM

Exhibit runs through March 3rd

You are invited to enjoy wintertime with several Maine Artists featuring their interpretations of this special season through a mix of disciplines. Please join us for the opening night festivities!

Inspiration: The snow is piled upon the ground and the moon is shining brightly in a star filled sky. Incandescent blue and purple shadows mark the snow in shapes of leafless trees. The quiet cracking of ice on the rivers, lakes and ponds, is a beautiful sound akin to the extra cold climate of this far northern region.
