SUMMARY:Underwater Opera Youth Theatre Camp
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to our “first ever” week-long Youth Theatre Camp. This camp is centered on Smithereen Farm and Greenhorns’ Reversing Hall Agrarian Library and led by a group of young and highly motivated theatre professionals from New York and California who share our ethos of bioregionalism\, self determination and youth empowerment. \nAt the heart of the camp is holistic\, uninhibited creativity. In the incredible marine and riverine habitats of our area\, children will find natural inspiration to create their own theatrical performance about the eco-system. Your child will learn creative skills by helping build an artistic community and immersing themselves in an environment of rivers and bays\, of seas and beaches\, barrens\, and bogs.\nGuided by instructors with backgrounds in theatre\, clowning\, and education\, your child will learn the basic elements of theatre through daily acting\, singing\, movement\, and improv classes. Each day will be filled with outdoor excursions in which your child will integrate their learning by singing to the trees and dancing with the water. The day camp will culminate in a final showcase for friends and family — a student-driven show that utilizes an incredible handpainted underwater backdrop created by the Artists’ Rapid Response Team during the www.ForAlltheFish.org campaign earlier this spring.\nAll are welcome to join us for the performance at the end: a youth-led tale of the marine heritage\, comedy/tragedy\, prospects and particularities of this place and moment in time. Amidst theatrical instruction and show development\, students will learn about the ecological history of their area through guided study at Greenhorns Agrarian Library. We’ll learn from atlases\, field guides\, indigenous accounts of encounters with settlers\, from wild food cookbooks\, as well as many other formats. We’ll focus on cod\, pollock\, alewives\, sardines\, clams… all will inspire the costumes and set design.\nWant to bring the whole family? We can help you find accommodations if needed. \nUnderwater Opera is designed for youth ages 7-13 and meets during the day only. Cost is $640 for the full week which includes lunch.

SUMMARY:Expanded Cinema at The Cannery
DESCRIPTION:Chicago rap artist and electro-noiser AQ comes to Maine\, re-uniting with 16mm film manipulator George Schaefer (photodeath_) for some deep sonic and visual experimentation. Joined in the zone by fellow Chicago sound man Nick Yeck-Stauffer on horn and electronics\, this program promises the spectrum of sights in a mesh of aural landscape that has defined this collaboration through a decade of work. Performances occurring Friday\, August 21\, 630pm at Bon Vent Cider in Hancock\, and Saturday\, August 22\, 630pm at The Cannery in South Penobscot. \nAQ\, most known for rap\, began collecting vinyl\, practicing turntablism\, DJing\, and making beats in the late 90’s. He dove into noise via an interest in the vintage electronics that made early hip-hop and house music\, often incorporating loops\, scaratches\, grooves\, and occasional raps into performances. He is currently a Dark Matter Resident at Elastic Arts. Hear more at aq-il on bandcamp or mraquil on youtube. \nNick Yeck-Stauffer is co-founder of Midwaste Records and a noise sesh trumpeteer on numerous jams and recordings\, recently sounding out on the road in Japan. He and George and crew ran Midwaste Space Peoples\, an independent project and performance space in E Garfield Park\, Chicago noted for experimental electronics and bass. \nPhotodeath is the moniker of Sullivan artist and builder George Schaefer. His film work primarily involves 16mm\, hand-manipulated and tape-spliced\, constructed as loops and longer-form montage. His monstrous little films project is a changing corpus of found\, acquired\, constructed\, and photographed 16mm\, on multiple projectors with processed sound.

SUMMARY:Underwater Opera Youth Theatre Camp
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to our “first ever” week-long Youth Theatre Camp. This camp is centered on Smithereen Farm and Greenhorns’ Reversing Hall Agrarian Library and led by a group of young and highly motivated theatre professionals from New York and California who share our ethos of bioregionalism\, self determination and youth empowerment. \nAt the heart of the camp is holistic\, uninhibited creativity. In the incredible marine and riverine habitats of our area\, children will find natural inspiration to create their own theatrical performance about the eco-system. Your child will learn creative skills by helping build an artistic community and immersing themselves in an environment of rivers and bays\, of seas and beaches\, barrens\, and bogs.\nGuided by instructors with backgrounds in theatre\, clowning\, and education\, your child will learn the basic elements of theatre through daily acting\, singing\, movement\, and improv classes. Each day will be filled with outdoor excursions in which your child will integrate their learning by singing to the trees and dancing with the water. The day camp will culminate in a final showcase for friends and family — a student-driven show that utilizes an incredible handpainted underwater backdrop created by the Artists’ Rapid Response Team during the www.ForAlltheFish.org campaign earlier this spring.\nAll are welcome to join us for the performance at the end: a youth-led tale of the marine heritage\, comedy/tragedy\, prospects and particularities of this place and moment in time. Amidst theatrical instruction and show development\, students will learn about the ecological history of their area through guided study at Greenhorns Agrarian Library. We’ll learn from atlases\, field guides\, indigenous accounts of encounters with settlers\, from wild food cookbooks\, as well as many other formats. We’ll focus on cod\, pollock\, alewives\, sardines\, clams… all will inspire the costumes and set design.\nWant to bring the whole family? We can help you find accommodations if needed. \nUnderwater Opera is designed for youth ages 7-13 and meets during the day only. Cost is $640 for the full week which includes lunch.

SUMMARY:Oshima Brothers w/ Mary Moore @ Deer Isle Hostel
DESCRIPTION:Groove and move with Oshima Brothers\, Maine’s own siblings indie alt pop band; and make welcome Mary Moore\, all the way from Nashville TN! \nOshima Brothers\, a Japanese-Italian sibling duo from the coast of Maine\, make open hearted music with smooth blood harmonies and groovy guitar lines. On stage\, Sean and Jamie share warm tones of folk\, alt pop\, and indie R&B on road weathered guitars\, keyboards and a loop station. Offstage\, the brothers enjoy sipping espresso\, tinkering with guitar pedals\, hosting dinner parties\, and writing songs together. Embracing a DIY approach\, they produce every inch of their songs and videos from scratch\, including a 45-minute album film. Their latest album In Orbit speaks of love\, climate resilience\, and family history repeating. Maine Public Radio says their “harmonies can’t be beat. They are uplifting and\, let’s face it\, we need uplifting these days.” \nBYOB and kids; leave dogs at home. This concert is outdoors\, and will be cancelled and refunded if it rains. Park along one side of Tennis Road ONLY (don’t block traffic).

SUMMARY:Aditi Sethi and Jay Brown — Second Wednesday House Party Concert
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, August 12th | 7:00pm Concert\nBagaduce Music\, 49 South St.\, Blue Hill ME \nAditi and Jay have been making music together since they met in 2003\, blending Aditi’s roots in Indian devotional song\, ghazals\, and Bollywood with Jay’s roots in American folk\, blues\, and roots music (honed touring with his band Lazybirds\, who once shared a stage with Doc Watson). That first spontaneous jam sparked a lasting musical partnership — as the world music duo Shantavaani\, later as part of the folk group the Appalucians\, and always as parents raising three musical kids along the way. Today they weave together sacred Indian melodies\, Appalachian harmonies\, and original songs into a sound entirely their own. \nBuy Tickets Now: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/bagaducemusic/2130412\n$15-35 suggested. Advanced tickets encouraged. Tickets available at the door when capacity allows \n-Food and chai available on site 6:00–7:15pm from Conscious Café.\n-Free guided tours of Native Gardens of Blue Hill (located on-campus) before the show \nMore Information: www.bagaducemusic.org | 207-374-5454
