Story Trees by the Sea returns!

The Ogunquit Museum of American Art is excited to welcome you back to the second annual Story Trees by the Sea event, co-hosted with the Wells Public Library. Join us for a magical weekend as the Museum’s galleries transform into a winter wonderland filled with beautifully decorated trees created by local classrooms and community members. This two-day event, held on Saturday and Sunday, December 13th and 14th, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., is suitable for all ages and offers a great opportunity to engage during the Museum’s usual off-season! Enjoy children’s stories read aloud by local authors and student ambassadors. Participate in hands-on art activities led by Common Roots Studio Mobile Art Bus and artist Heather Lewis. Enjoy light snacks and refreshments. New this year, explore portraits created by Advanced Art students at Traip Academy as part of a 12-week collaborative project with the Museum. In addition, view powerful photographic portraits by students from York High School. Visit the Museum’s gift shop for some holiday shopping! This family-friendly event is free and open to all ages — no pre-registration is needed. Parking at the Museum is limited. Complimentary shuttle service will be available both days between the Cape Neddick Country Club parking lot and the Museum. Visitors are encouraged to park at the Country Club and take advantage of the shuttle. Generous support for this event is provided by Carole J. Aaron.
