Tidepools, gardens, goats and honeybees…the four words we’ve decided encapsulate our image of Searsport Shores.  But in February there should be a 5th word…art.  This is the month we figure out the weekly artist in residence program that fills our summer with so much creativity and do a large amount of our planning for Fiber College in September.  By the end of the week we’ll have the schedule fully updated and I’m really excited…we should have a seamstress and a wood carver, a quilter and a bread maker…and a silk painter and a book maker…see what I mean? Exciting!
