SUMMARY:Coast Umami Lab
DESCRIPTION:We welcome back chef Nicholas Repenning and Pacific harvester Nathan Maxwell Cann for this series of workshop and culinary experiments in conjunction with our June Low Low Tides seaweed harvest workshop. \nJune 14: MISO EXPLORATIONS\nJune 15: KOJI EXPLORATIONS\nJune 16: INTERTIDAL KITCHEN\nJune 17: 2nd Annual Community Miso Making \nEach day consists of afternoon workshops followed by group dinner at Smithereen Farm. \nIn this suite of workshops\, we’ll deep dive into koji and miso as well as explore local umami makers in the region around us. From ancient and traditional practices to contemporary uses of these culinary tools\, let’s learn the mystical and practical wisdoms of umami! Hone your senses and open to the intimacy of taste and texture as we are guided by our other-than-human culinary and ecological partners. \nIntertidal Kitchen with Nathan Maxwell Cann\nA hands-on exploration of seaweed\, fermentation\, and the deep flavors of the shoreline\, moving from tidepool harvest to simple kitchen preparations. Participants work with dashi\, urchin gathering\, seaweed seasonings\, and koji-based techniques to understand how ecology\, process\, and taste converge into umami. \nSecond Annual Community Miso Making\nWe’ll open the miso we made at Smithereen last year and make a new batch to put away for a year. This annual tradition anchors us to our shared cultures and the flavors that only arrive when we invest time into our relationships with each other\, our culinary histories\, and the microbial world. Whether you’re returning to witness the transformation we initiated or joining for the first time\, we welcome you to our miso community. \nNathan Maxwell Cann is a Pacific harvester\, artist\, and food and beverage consultant based in Northern California. He leads workshops focused on coastal ecology\, seaweed\, and urchin management through initiatives including Flora & Fungi and the Usal Project. Nathan is also the co-chair of Kelp Fest in Mendocino\, where he collaborates with community members across disciplines to highlight the ecological and cultural significance of kelp and coastal food systems. \nNicholas Repenning is co founder of go-en fermented foods and acts as board member of Maine Ferments\, an educational non profit project here in Maine. His focus over the past decade has been commercially producing and experimenting with Japanese foods in his own fermentation laboratory. Utilizing these ancient food technologies\, Nicholas is enthusiastic to share all he has learned from these foods and the microbial partners that make it all happen.

SUMMARY:Urban Sketching
DESCRIPTION:Grab your pencils or ink pens\, watercolors or pastels – whatever medium makes you happy! Join us in front of Waterfall Arts for the first-ever meeting of the Waterfall Arts Urban Sketching group. We’ll gather under the ‘Here Is Magic’ Mural and then spread out to sketch whatever tickles our individual fancies. After sketching\, we’ll meet back at the mural for a throw down (sharing of our sketches) at noon. Everyone is welcome! \nThe goal of urban sketching is to tell a story using any medium in any environment. It is a direct observation drawing that works to capture a moment in time and the energy of the scene. It can be a quick sketch or a detailed image of a complex site. It is created on location using any kind of media. We hope this will become an ongoing meetup with rotating group leaders! \nFREE! All ages and abilities welcome!

SUMMARY:"Justice For All" - Midcoast Community Chorus Spring Concert
DESCRIPTION:Midcoast Community Chorus announces its upcoming concert\, “Justice for All\,” a powerful concert of music with a mission. The concert will be held on June 14\, 2026 at 4pm at The Strom Auditorium at Camden Hills Regional High School.\nBeyond the performance itself\, the chorus will present a community grant of $5\,000 to Come Spring Food Pantry\, a local organization working on the front lines of food insecurity gleaning surplus produce\, reducing food waste\, and serving neighbors with dignity.\nThe concert program draws on music that speaks to themes of equity\, compassion\, and community – from modern classics like Ysaye Barnwell’s Hope to choral versions of classic folks songs like David Mallett’s The Garden Song to contemporary pieces that reflect the world we live in like Crowded Table by the High Women. Special guest vocalists Michael Weferling and Willow Watts will perform. The grant presentation will take place as part of the program\, making the connection between artistic expression and community action visible and tangible for audience members\, who will be invited to sing along on the iconic anthem of resistance and resilience\, “We Shall Overcome”.\n“Music has always been a vehicle for justice\,” said Anna Jones\, Executive Director of Midcoast Community Chorus. “This concert is our opportunity to put that belief into practice\, not just in the songs we sing\, but in what we do with -and for- the community we have built together.”\nCome Spring Food Pantry\, based in Union\, serves the Midcoast through a combination of traditional food pantry services and gleaning – recovering fresh food from farms\, markets\, and restaurants that would otherwise go to waste. Their model treats food access not as charity but as a right\, prioritizing the dignity of every person they serve.
