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:Swordfish in Wabanaki Homeland
DESCRIPTION:Archaeological sites along the Maine coast show that swordfish existed in the Gulf of Maine between approximately 5\,500 and 3\,700 years ago. Excavations at multiple Maine sites have produced swordfish rostra\, vertebrae\, and other remains\, indicating that Wabanaki ancestors harvested and processed these large fish for millennia. In this presentation\, Dr. Bonnie Newsom will discuss the presence of swordfish in Wabanaki homeland and what these archaeological data reveal about past marine conditions\, Wabanaki fishing practices\, and how climate change affected local ecosystems. Through archaeological study of swordfish remains from the Gulf of Maine\, we can appreciate the sophisticated relationship Indigenous peoples had with swordfish specifically\, and the marine environment more broadly.

SUMMARY:Riley Green at Maine Savings Amphitheater
DESCRIPTION:The Maine Savings Amphitheater welcomes Riley Green’s “Cowboy As It Gets” tour on Saturday\, August 15th. This is shaping up to be one of the best summer tours in all of country music. You’ve got Riley Green hitting the stage with tracks like “You Look Like You Love Me.” That earned him plenty of awards\, particularly for the live renditions. He’s also bringing some company along for the ride. \nJustin Moore and Hannah McFarland\, who just so happen to share a love of whiskey\, will be taking the stage before the main event. You’ll know Justin from “You Me and Whiskey” and Hannah from “Whiskey Into Water.” That should tell you a little bit about what you can expect to see coming from the stage at the Maine Savings Amphitheater in mid-August.
