Sherrie York evokes nature – birds in particular – in award-winning hand-pulled linocuts from her home studio in Bristol, Maine. Her prints have been featured in national and international exhibitions. And now she is going to be at the Wendell Gilley Museum in person to explore with us that special place where nature and art intersect as the museum’s People-Nature-Art presenter for June on Tuesday, June 24. There will be a 6 p.m. artist’s reception followed by her presentation at 7 p.m. which will be in person and simultaneously livecast. Both in-person and online attendance is free, but registration is required. In her linocuts, she strives to represent the interactions of living things both as a moment in time and as a reflection of the wider experience of life on earth. “Human relationships with wild lands and wild creatures are as individual as we are,” she says. “When an image I create sparks a question or reflects an experience familiar to the viewer, it provides an opportunity to share our stories and understand each other’s perspective. Through these stories we celebrate the beauty found in nature, and find common ground to address larger issues of environmental and cultural stewardship.” People-Nature-Art is a free monthly series that brings artists, writers, carvers, and creative types of all kinds to the Gilley to explore how nature and art interact in their work, and how their art impacts their own approach to nature. It is sponsored in part by our friends at Bar Harbor Bank & Trust.

YOGA BY the BAY Spending time in nature is one of the most natural mood lifters and the best way to promote your health and well being. There is something very special about moving to your natural rhythm immersed in the beauty of Frenchman’s Bay.  Start your day in the morning sun, smelling the fresh salt air & listening to the sound of waves gently kissing the shoreline as you are guided by professional, certified yoga instructors. Earth energy infuses our practices with an extra dose of grounding in this ALL levels yoga class.   Each class offers personal modifications and emphasizes integrating MIND, BODY and BREATH- all within this supportive natural environment.     Oceanfront YOGA class for our 14th season at the Bar Harbor Inn & Spa  EVERY DAY 9-10am    Yoga starts june 14, 2025 yoga last class: September 14, 2025   Bar Harbor Inn & Spa  1 Newport Drive Bar Harbor   Open to the public, EveryBODY WELCOME Fee: $15 (exact cash is appreciated)  Season pass for unlimited classes $387 Locals class pass $60 for 5 classes    No experience necessary, No pre-registration.

Hike to one of Acadia?s iconic summits AND help Acadia National Park?s efforts to restore native vegetation!
