Sea Spray on the Brac

Gatherings

In person and virtual events creating room for presence and community.

Some happen on the coast or in the studio. Others unfold on stage or within the gallery. Each one invites attention to what restores us. Current offerings include Radio Maine Live, Artful Escapes, and seasonal virtual book circles.

The Bountiful Path

Portland Art Gallery monthly openings

The first Thursday of each month, the gallery hosts an opening reception for new work by its represented artists. An evening of conversation with the artists, light hors d’oeuvres, and a chance to see the new show before it goes on view.

Virtual book circles

A seasonal online gathering for readers who want companionship without homework. No assigned book, no cost, no pressure to attend every gathering. We share short passages, a few reflections, and plenty of listening space. Future circles are announced on The Bountiful Path.
