BOWDOINHAM — Merrymeeting Arts Center is holding a virtual community art show, according to a news release from the center.
To enter, use home supplies, gather some interesting items from Mother Nature, either in the yard or while out on a walk, and let your imagination run wild. Make a sculpture out of branches, dried mud, moss, rocks, a feather. Cut paper into shapes for a mosaic. Paint a picture. Use scraps of yarn or twine to make a macrame plant hanger. Cut up old magazines and make a collage. Knit or sew scraps of fabric together. Make a simple loom out of four pieces of wood and some small nails and do a weaving out of yarn, vines, cut up strips of fabric. Take a camera out on a walk and see what interesting, fun photos you capture.
Once your creation is finished, take a picture and email it to MAC at [email protected].
All submissions will be posted on the center’s website merrymeetingartscenter.org under a special Socially Responsible Distancing Art Show heading.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
