L/A Arts continues its drive to sell 10 pieces of art. To support the work of local artists, Artwalk L/A urges you to enjoy the work during Artwalk and then purchase it. L/A Arts takes no commission on art sales at its 10-plus galleries/exhibits. Visit www.artwalklewistonauburn.com for more information.

Artist David Footer, now 82 years of age, has been involved with nature and wildlife on many levels for over 70 years. Since 1994, his art has been on the covers of Maine Fish and Wildlife, Canada’s Eastern Woods and Waters, and in 2002, a 13-page feature story was published in the Art of Angling Journal.

Celebrating its 10-year anniversary, ArtVan is a free mobile arts therapy program that brings the arts in a colorful painted van to children, teens, and adults who have the least amount of social services. ArtVan provides the arts as a form of expression to safely communicate thoughts, feelings and ideas into tangible works of art.

The 20 voices of the Maine Music Society Chamber Singers are members of the Androscoggin Chorale who focus on music sung a cappella. They perform music from madrigals to arrangements of songs by the Beatles.

The Tinpanic Steel Band will be rocking the ArtWalk with a repertoire ranging from the Big Band-era to calypso island favorites. The concert is free and open to the public.

The Juke Joint Devils will perform at She Doesn’t Like Guthries. These guys take you back to a time when small house bands played from the soul, on real instruments, could swing like crazy, and anything could happen on stage. The Juke Joint Devils play a mix of West Coast and Chicago Blues, with a bit of spice from New Orleans and elsewhere.
