From July 17 through July 29, the Deer Isle Artists Association will present “Spell of Inspiration” at the Deer Isle Artists Association Gallery in Deer Isle Village. And how is “Inspiration” spelled for each artist? Very differently, even when worked in similar mediums, whether those be pottery, painting, fiber, photography, etc.

The show features artists from around the peninsula, including Marianne Alweis,  Betsy Branunhut, Nat Dickinson, Jeri Gillin, David Higgins, Avery Falkner,  Judith Felch, Rachel Gordon Bernstein,  David McBeth, Gudrun K. Tarr, Scott Thurston, Alice Wilkinson, and Anne C. Williams.  The Art Rack will feature work by Suzanne Carmichael, Judith Felch,  Cynthia Stroud-Watson,Paul Trowbridge, Oscar Turner, and Tracy Van Buskirk.

The public is warmly invited to a reception with the artists on Sunday, July 22, from 3:00 – 5:00 at the DIAA Gallery at 15 Main Street in Deer Isle Village. The gallery is open daily, Tuesdays through Saturdays, from 10:00 – 5:00. 207-348- 2330.
