NORWAY — On September 14, join the Norway community on one of the last weekends of summer as Lights Out Gallery throws a yellow block party! Celebrating three art shows opening their doors within walking distance of each other, Lights Out Gallery is hosting a pig roast at the local Wook Nook bar for everyone to enjoy.

63 Windows is a photography exhibit produced by Lights Out’s first residency program. June Kim, Nick Gervin, Harlan Crichton, Neville Caulfield, Scott Vlaun, and Chelsea Ellis were selected for the first residency for their experimental, rigorous, and engaged relationship with their medium. The artists were prompted to live and work in dialogue with the town, the house, and their practices. The exhibition is being held in The Gingerbread House, 500 Main Street, Norway. A bus will be running along the route for anyone who wants a lift.

Marking Time – A Measure of Craft is an invitational exhibition of fifteen Maine artists working in craft-based mediums. The concept is to create an exhibition that explores how traditional craft techniques and materials, developed over time and practice, influence and inform artistic expression. Craft has often been associated primarily with utility and decoration. This collection of work aims to challenge the delineations between form and function, decorative and expressive, practical and emotional. The exhibition is co-curated by artists Diana Arcadipone and Judith Schneider at The Carriage House, 476 Main Street in Norway.

Down the Rabbit Hole at the Wolf & Harp will open its doors for the third of four showings available for the public. This show, comprising 68 pieces by 46 artists chosen from our recent open call, is an installation of flat work and sculpture in a high-end wedding venue in the heart of Norway. The museum-quality artworks stand against the backdrop of the historic mansion with its arched ceremony space and speakeasy. The exhibition will only be available to be seen by the public twice more on October 24 and December 12. Wolf & Harp is located at 76 Pleasant St, Norway.

Doors for the art shows are open from 3-7 p.m. All artwork in the shows is available for purchase. The pig roast begins at 4 p.m. and ends when no more pig is left. Admission to this event is free, and everyone is invited to come! Lights Out members will be wearing yellow, and we encourage attendees to wear yellow as well!
