It's that time of year again!
We are excited to begin our call for new members at the gallery. Applications are due by March 15!

This Saturday is the second sketchbook session at the @eastportartscenter! Saturday sessions are not mandatory to participate, just a fun exercise to draw with other creative folks.
All are welcome to join in the sketchbook project. Drop in 10:30 am to draw with our own @alisonbrynnross
Get all the details at eastportartscenter.org
Interested in our sketchbook project? We are kicking it off tomorrow with our first session @eastportartscenter at 10:30.
Is that too soon or you canât make it? Donât worry! You can start by picking up your sketchbook and prompt booklet any Saturday in February (or until we run out!)
Canât make it to a Saturday session, or any of them? Also cool, they are meant to supplement your sketchbook, not stress you out. They arenât required to participate. (Only catch is collecting your sketchbook on a Saturday đŹđ)
Donât want to draw but wondering when you get to come and see all the wondrous creations from our participants? There will be an opening reception March 30! And sketchbooks will be on display for the week.
Have other questions? Leave them in the comments!
With all the celebrations happening this week we thought weâd celebrate a little too by sharing what Eastport and what Art mean to you. These are all of the wonderful notes shared during our mini âArt isâŚâinstallation during last monthâs ArtWalk weekend.
But letâs not stop there, weâd love to see what Eastport and Art mean to you. Tag us in your pics and weâll share them in our stories!
Tag @eastportgallery or #eastportgallery
Happy 4th!
Itâs a new month (almost) so that means a whole new collection at the gallery. We have a fabulous collection from all of our members and our doors are open from 11-5 EVERY DANG DAY! From now through August.
Come say hello, peruse the art, and enjoy the views (or sometimes the view of fog this week đ
).
