We arrived early to set up for camp. The lake was calm and the peacefulness which the island exudes was apparent everywhere. We were excited to greet the campers and teachers and get the show on the road! Which of course we did right away ... diving in
Some interment making with Rachel Blumberg ended up with a performance on Saturday night jamming out a tune called "Mayhew Mayhem"... above is Kerry from Australia hard at work making her very own strumpfiddle!
Lots of painting was happening each day with
Mati McDonough right on North Beach. Yes folks. Painting on the beach. It doesn't get much better than that!
Lisa Solomon also taught crochet and Day to Day Art on the beach and
Rebecca Emberley was talking children's book publishing and teaching her collaging techniques up on the front porch... into the night! Everyone was so inspired that they could not stop.
There were fires on the beach with tie dyeing and s'mores making ... much merriment and art biz discussions and networking.
General merriment and sharing were a huge part of each day with everyone bringing something special to the discussions.
And in the evening there was special music with Jeffery Underwood and Rachel Blumberg. Magic I tell you... simply magical!
On the shores of Mayhew Island ARC came to life this summer - and we can not wait until next year! 2014 dates will be announced here, on the facebook group (join now!) and on the website very soon. Until then, these photos will have to do ...
