Every photo safari explores camera setting choices, creating compelling and engaging compositions and developing a photographic awareness enabling you to capture Acadia's natural beauty. All photographers and all skill levels (beginner and beyond) are taught in a small, intimate group (limited to 6 participants) during our 3-hour photography tour.

I've taken classes and taught workshops at ArtWaves. It's a pretty special place, with a friendly and welcoming community. Classes range from introductory level to fairly advanced, and the overall atmosphere is 'Everybody is an artist, come on in!' Love the energy there.

Reviewed By thygesons - Sullivan, United States

Went to see a Celtic trio recently, and the historic venue was quaint and comfortable. They even offered fresh bake cakes and pies prior to the show. This is a must for a Friday evening if you are in the area. I will make this a regular spot for me in the future. Look for schedule of events on their website.

Flora Funga Farms

Hi there! I'm your guide, Willow. I've spent thousands of hours collecting and identifying mushrooms all over the United States. I grew up on Mount Desert Island, Maine, and graduated from College of the Atlantic in 2017. I have a close relationship with the flora and funga of Maine, and am eager to share what I know on my guided foraging sessions!
