Welcome to
Coastal Maine Art Workshops/Rockland!
CMAW brings internationally known artists to Rockland to provide exciting, quality art instruction. For 2008, we’ve added a Windjammer Cruise class and two classes at a near by shore side inn. Generally classes are held either plein air or in our large studio at the Trade Winds Motor Inn, across the road from Rockland Harbor. Some classes may also take a train ride to paint in Wiscasset for the day. (Ask your instructor about doing this!)
Rockland has a wealth of vistas to paint, great food and is considered one of the country’s best art destinations! The center of this very small city offers galleries, shops, restaurants, museums and easy access to the waterfront scenery.
Rockland has a busy harbor with a variety of working and pleasure craft, both sail and power. The city’s architecture reflects its history; its mix of wealthy and working class homes and buildings offers intriguing painting alternatives.
Not far from quaint seaside villages, lighthouses and beaches, or a ferry trip to Monhegan and the other nearby islands, Rockland is just a few miles from the beautiful harbors of Camden and Rockport. Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor are only 2 hours further up the Coast. If you’re considering making this a longer vacation, you might also want to be here for one of our famous mid-summer Festivals! Check www.therealme.com for more information.)
We’ll do everything we can to make your experience one that will bring you back again and again; some of our students and teachers have been coming for many years! Your registration includes a Welcome Gathering the night before, and a Complimentary Lobster dinner the night of, the first class; plus 24 hour studio access and free parking at the Trade Winds, regardless of where you stay.
If you’re interested in attending the workshops, please print out the registartion form to register by mail. You may also register by phone or email. We accept personal checks and most major credit cards.
We’re looking forward to hearing from you! Please do pass the word …it’s fun to come with friends, and we’ll be happy to add anyone who contacts us, to our mailing list.
Thank you!
