CHEERS!!!! CAMDEN MAINE ARTS COLLABORATION!!!
Camden Maine Arts Collaboration, Thank You for putting on such a great evening in the historic 3rd floor gallery ( a.k.a: Funkton Lounge ) of the Camden Opera House. It was the first of many great evenings to come. A collaboration amongst artists, musicians & artisans is without a doubt the most single important aspect of these Live Art Dance Party’s in order to deliver a special experience for the guests. A special evening is what was had by all, so thank you collaborators.
Like to thank the following collaboractors for making this happen: Jenna Lookner (Co-Collaborator) , Kelly Hailey (Artisan), Robert Dyer (Artiste), Jessie Felix (Photographer), Terry Frank (DeeJay), Jonathon Wood (Singer/Songwriter), Stiff Whisker and the Driftwood Kids ( Musicians ), Gabe Finklestein ( traveling slide-show)
The following sponors: The Camden Riverhouse, Peter Ott’s( don’t forget, you receive 10% off any menu-item thru Saturday March 27 when you present your ticket from the Live Art Dance Party ), The Cutting Edge, French & Brawn.
Thanks to Farmer’s Fare for providing those delicious treats!! A special thanks to Rockport Blue-Print, who will continue to sponsor art supplies for ” The Rockport Blue-Print interactive art corner “
Many great raffle prizes were won that evening and the winners names will be posted shortly!! A big thanks to Olad ( 2 day sail passes ), Camden International Film Festival ( October 1-4, 2010 - 2 passes ), Jessie Felix ( matted photograph ), Kelly Hailey ( Re-Claimed Wooden Mirror ), Robert Dyer ( Evening’s Spoken Art )
The Camden Opera House could not be more pleased to host an event that fits the 3rd floor galley so well. They, like Camden Maine Arts Collaboration understand the importance of bringing quality entertainment to audiences from the Mid-Coast, Islands & beyond!! So thank you Camden Oper House for your support as well!!!
Last and certainly not least was the collaboration with Youth Arts. A Camden based non-profit organization that operates soley on a volunteer basis, serving the SAD 28 k-12 public school district. Music and the Arts, to flourish in the present and future relies on our support for the young children and young adults of this and other communities. With constant awareness and continual support, events like the ” Live Art Dance Party ” and other types of events can assist with Youth Arts mission. So send them your support whether financial or moral!!
The next ” Live Art Dance Party - Let The Side-Trail…In “ is slated for Late May in the Funkton Lounge. The Climatics will be head-Lining. A great ska-reggae group who are quite eager to lay down the grooves for us! We will also have the spoken art of not only Robert Dyer but we are fortunate to have Local artist Isiah Pottle collaborate as well.
W do not want to re-veal too much more right now but it will prove to be another amazing evening. So thank you for collaborating and look to forward to the next Funkton Lounge experience.
Best Regards,
Mr. Funkton Dark-Water
