 Arts Guide
Author Eckhart Tolle once wrote, “All true artists, whether they know it or not, create from a place of no-mind, from inner stillness.”Whether Tolle is right, the quiet beauty of this area does breed creativity. Artists have claimed this corner of Maine for more than a century. Take the time to visit the area’s galleries, studios and venues. The variety of performing and visual arts available is sure to tempt one way or another! Paintings by George Lee Crosby.
