The Wendell Gilley Museum is moving to its fall/winter hours. As of the week beginning Oct. 27, the Gilley will be open Fridays and Saturdays, from 10am to 4pm each of those days through the end of April. People-Nature-Art presentations will continue to happen one Tuesday night each month, and Paint ‘n’ Sips will continue to be offered on one Friday night each month from 4:40 to 6:30pm. School programs can be scheduled Tuesday-Friday. Occasionally, other events will be scheduled outside the standard Friday-Saturday hours. Be sure to check the website, or sign up for the News from the Nest e-newsletter for the most up-to-date information. Watch for new exhibits, new workshops, and new opportunities to gather with the community at the Gilley where we bring people closer to nature through art.

Join Kathie Pratt and work in polymer clay to create a bird-themed brooch, lapel pin or pendant that you’ll be able to complete and take home that day. Class size is limited. All materials supplied. Students must be 14 or older.

Nell Parker lives with her family in a rambling 200-year-old farmhouse in rural Maine. She loves to engage with the surrounding landscape through growing her own food, celebrating the wheel of the year, and closely observing the surrounding world in the process of art-making. Her work has been shown in galleries throughout Maine and Oregon.

Students will be guided by local artist Erika Rosso, step by step, to create their own nature-inspired Winter Scene in watercolor.

Sip on wine, tea or seltzer as part of this adults-only class, which is suitable for artists of all levels who are at least 21 years old. All materials and beverages provided.
