A Few Words on Haystack
October 2, 2010Post written by and photographs taken by Frank Chin, Skowhegan Middle School art teacher
As the warm days and cool nights ushered our arrival to Haystack, art teachers from all over Maine gathered in various art workshops. Going down to the aesthetic stairway, and on to the first landing, turn either right or left and you will enter the world of artists in their “glory”. Why not… ocean air, anxious reunion, meeting new people, sing-a-long, great food, collaboration and fun were all ingredients for this festive conference.
The announcement of the Maine Art Teacher of the 2010 year was Molly Mains, who graciously accepted the plague and flowers and said “I love what I do (teaching art). …and thank you so much for this honor….” Way to go Molly!!!
I look forward to the 2011 conference! Thanks to the MAEA staff and cooks at Haystack for making this possible for so many years!
