Maine Craft Weekend at Artsworth

Artsworth Studios 25 Pine St., Ellsworth

A weekend of open studio activities! Artsworth annually creates this "hub" of fine arts activities in the building we share with our glassblowing neighbor, Atlantic Art Glass. It's a grand celebration of creativity by local makers, and you can find many of them here in one dynamic location.

Linda Perrin's team of glassmakers will demonstrate traditional glassblowing all day as they make glass pumpkins of all shapes, sizes, and colors! Atlantic Art Glass's studio will be turned into a glass pumpkin patch as the molten glass is pulled from the furnace, blown, and hand-formed on the end of a blowpipe. There are bleachers set up, and refreshments will be provided for your comfort as you watch demonstrations. The glass pumpkin patch charms visitors of all ages!

Artsworth is considered an MCA HUB. Local artisans will share their work at the 25 Pine St. Warehouse—fine jewelry, prints, pottery, fiber art, and more! Everyone will be showing, selling, demonstrating, and discussing how they make their work.

Come one, come all! Artsworth prides itself on being welcoming to all people and focusing on building community one event at a time. We want to see you out for this fabulous weekend—see you there!

Saturday: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Studio Tour @ Antje Roitzsch

Antje Roitzsch Studio 310 Youngtown Road, Lincolnville

Have you ever wondered how a mobile gets to balance? During this open studio, you will get the chance to see works in progress and you can witness the magic of sculptures taking to the air, balancing and moving.

Additionally, walk through the garden display and enjoy the artwork on the open porches. Dynamically moving sculptures need to be seen in person, no photo will give justice to the magic. Enjoy this chance to see mobiles as well as a line of jewelry and belt buckles in different sizes and materials. I look forward to meeting you.
