SUMMARY:Francis Hamabe's Maine: A Life in Art
DESCRIPTION:Castine Historical Society’s 2026 exhibition of Francis Hamabe’s Maine: A Life in Art\, 17 School Street\, Castine\nCurated by Carl Little\, a curator\, art critic\, and friend of Hamabe\, Francis Hamabe’s Maine is a joyful exploration of an artist’s interpretation of Maine. Please check castinehistoricalsociety.org for dates and times or call 207-326-4118 \nFrancis Hamabe’s Maine: A Life in Art explores the life and career of Francis Hamabe (1917 – 2002)\, who spent more than forty years living and working in Maine. Francis Hamabe’s Maine is truly a collaborative exhibition\, with nearly every object\, archival document\, and photograph loaned to us for this first-of-its-kind career retrospective of Hamabe. Curated by Carl Little\, a curator\, art critic\, and friend of Hamabe\, Francis Hamabe’s Maine is a joyful exploration of an artist’s interpretation of Maine. \nFrom Blue Hill to Castine to Machias\, Hamabe’s artworks are a love letter to Maine. Hamabe’s career as a graphic designer\, silkscreen artist\, painter\, cartoonist\, and puppeteer had a lasting impact on his adoptive state of Maine. This exhibition follows his early life as a Japanese American living in Orange\, New Jersey\, to his service in World War II and the aftermath of Japanese internment\, to his life as a working artist in downeast Maine. Hamabe cultivated a large network of friends and fellow artists\, creating a generational legacy for Maine’s artists. \nHamabe was constantly creating works. Whether they were silkscreen prints\, sumi ink drawings\, or large-scale paintings\, his artwork can be found all over the state and country. This exhibition features more than forty of his original artworks. He had a particularly large impact on the Blue Hill Peninsula through his art classes\, which he taught in both private homes and public locations\, including here in Castine. This exhibition includes several works of art done by his students in Castine\, and his lasting influence is apparent in these works.

SUMMARY:Photo Walks & Film Darkroom Basics
DESCRIPTION:Join local photographer Glendon Rand for a photo walk through Belfast. Participants will bring their own camera (smartphone\, digital\, or film) OR they can borrow one of Glendon’s refurbished film cameras for the day\, along with a FREE roll of film. The group will then adventure downtown to take photographs with instruction on the basics of film photography (film speed/digital ISO\, aperture\, shutter speed\, framing your shot\, using natural and artificial lighting\, and lens focal length). \nAfter the walk the film will be processed by the instructor and a meetup will be scheduled to view the photos on a projector and discuss together. A second workshop will be scheduled for interested students who wish to learn how to print black-and white enlargements from the film negatives and engage with or refine darkroom techniques.
