NORWAY — Norway Savings Bank has entered into a new $30,000 multiyear commitment with Lights Out Gallery.
The gallery is a nonprofit arts hub occupying a 15,000-square-foot building at 10 Tannery St. What was once a snowshoe factory in the early 1900s is now home to a gallery, dance studio, artists’ studios, and additional spaces being renovated to accommodate further creativity and performance.
The donation will be used to make those renovations and put in place other plans to grow the arts organization.
“Every day, we get closer to a statewide arts organization that can bring people together through genuine connection, storytelling, education, and fun,” said co-founder Karlë Woods. “To have this special place where creativity is celebrated and the arts are enthusiastically supported by and for the wider community, what could be better than that?”
