Dialogue Groups About Racism Starting Soon 09/08/23-09/09/23 at All Day

Dialogue Groups About Racism Starting Soon

About 150 people from the Brunswick area have now participated in the Sacred Ground program of conversations about race and racism. The feedback has been that it is an eye-opening and deeply moving experience. Each group consists of 6-8 participants and two trained facilitators, who meet together over eleven sessions to discuss films and other materials, creating a space conducive to honest sharing and deep listening. While this program began in the Episcopal Church, our version is not religious in nature (really!). Sacred Ground is for anyone who wants to understand racism more clearly and envision how we might move forward in a different way. Please join us!
 
Group A: Mondays (9/11, 10/2, 10/23, 11/13, 12/11, 1/8, 1/29, 2/26, 3/18, 4/8, 4/29) from 1:30-3:00pm at Curtis Library
Group B: Tuesdays (9/19, 10/10, 10/31, 11/28, 12/19, 1/9, 1/30, 2/27, 3/19, 4/9, 4/30) from 1:00-2:30pm at Curtis Library
Group C: Tuesdays (10/10, 10/31, 11/28, 12/19, 1/9, 1/30, 2/27, 3/19, 4/9, 4/30, 5/21) from 10:00-11:30am at Curtis Library

The Maine Made Market is organized in 2021 by Ann and Bob Hutchins, owners and operators of Maine Made Photos, which they established in 2006 after relocating from New Orleans due to hurricane Katrina. Their shop is located on Brunswick Landing.
The Arts Market is designed to showcase and sell Maine artists’ work and at the same time draw attention to and help support the Brunswick Naval Aviation Museum. The museum is embarking on a $3.5 million building renovation and exhibit installation to preserve the heritage of maritime patrol aviation, particularly that of the former Naval Air Station in Brunswick, and to memorialize those Brunswick based air crewmen who lost their lives in service to their country.
HOURS: The museum is open Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sundays from noon to 4 p.m. and Saturdays from  10 am – 4 pm. during the  market. A major feature of the museum is its state-of-the-art flight simulator. The museum is on the web at bnamuseum.com and you can follow us on Facebook. The museum is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation and all contributions are tax deductible in accordance with IRS regulations.
For further information concerning the Brunswick Landing Arts Market, or to be a vendor, contact Ann Hutchins at brunswicklandingartsmarket@gmail.com.
