SUMMARY:Wolfe's Neck Center - Reading Your Landscape: A Site Assessment Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The first step to building a resilient native plant garden\, a wildflower meadow\, a native hedgerow\, or a native buffer planting is to familiarize yourself with the site’s conditions\, to best match the right plants to the place. When well-matched to your site\, native plants will establish quickly and repopulate the landscape without need for supplemental water\, soil amendments\, fertilizer\, pesticides\, or frequent pruning. Join Wild Seed Project at Wolfe’s Neck Center as we dive into the process of how to do a site assessment to figure out what plants will grow best for you. This program will be centered around a hands-on model site assessment at Wolfes Neck’s new Community Seed Garden\, a part of the larger Carbon Footpath. \nREGISTER \nWolfe’s Neck Center for Agriculture & the Environment\n184 Burnett Rd.\nFreeport\, ME 04032\n207-865-9307\nwolfesneck.org

SUMMARY:Nighttime Projections of Freeport Past & Present
DESCRIPTION:On the nights of Aug. 3rd\, 4th\, 31st and Sept. 1st\, buildings in Downtown Freeport will be illuminated with historic and contemporary local photos and writings. \nWorking collaboratively\, the Freeport Historical Society will be projecting images from its collection of photos from the Town’s past. Meetinghouse Arts will be previewing current work by Freeport residents selected from submissions to its initiative\, Our Town: A Community Self Portrait. \nWhat the selections from both organizations share are the instincts of a community to document both the significant places\, events and undertakings in town as well as the activities and rhythms of its daily life. \n“The projections will activate Downtown Freeport at a time when the Town is looking for opportunities to liven up underutilized public spaces.” said Evan Haynes\, a Freeport artist and Director of the Community Self Portrait project. “Meetinghouse Arts had conceived the Self Portrait project to be an arts based\, community driven documentary that would support the town’s ongoing engagement with planning for the future. The projections are a terrific preview for a project that would traditionally result in a gallery exhibition. Putting larger than life images and texts on the street at night might surprise people walking to their cars to see previous generations of their family working at the quarry or snapshots of a neighbor at a parade.” \nOur Town: A Community Self Portrait is a collective commentary and snapshot of Freeport’s summer of 2024. Residents\, businesses and organizations were invited to capture and describe the town’s essence through photography and words. \nThis documentary created by the Freeport community\, is the basis for exhibitions and a community conversation that will be happening at Meetinghouse Arts and various locations in Freeport\, October 25 through November 3. \nFunding for Our Town: A Community Self Portrait and the projections was provided by the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Horizon Foundation\, the Margaret E. Burnham Charitable Trust. \nThese public art projections are made possible by a Momentum Grant from the Town of Freeport. \nVarious Locations\, Downtown Freeport including Meetinghouse Arts 40 Main Street Freeport
