National Park Artists-in-Residence on
the Schoodic Education and Research

From 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., textile artist Sarah Haskell will
share her work including her community art piece, The Button Project, a 9/11 memorial, and lead a workshop in weaving
paper mosaics. Then, at 10:30 a.m., returning poet Mimi White will present her 2005
contribution to the park, which is a work of poetry. After reading some of her
works, she will lead a short workshop in writing your own poetry.
Bring a bag lunch and relax between 12 and 12:30 p.m.,
then join photographer Karen Klinedinst, who will lead a photo transfer workshop
until 2:30 p.m. Participants can bring their own slides and transfer them to
prints that can be hand colored. There will also be slides available.
