SUMMARY:Landscape Painting in Acadia with the New York Academy of Art
DESCRIPTION:Join the New York Academy of Art at Schoodic Institute in Winter Harbor\, Maine from June 29 – July 6!\nCourse Description: Be inspired by the rocky coasts and forests of Maine’s Acadia National Park in this plein air landscape painting retreat led by Ard Berge and sponsored by the New York Academy of Art. Over eight days\, explore nature drawing\, the colors of sunlight on surf\, and quick painting on locations mined by Thomas Cole and Frederic Edwin Church. The retreat fees include meals and shared housing at Schoodic Institute\, inside Acadia National Park\, as well as five days of optional instruction. \nSchoodic Peninsula and Acadia National Park: Schoodic Point is a coastal “neck” that projects into the Gulf of Maine and is adjacent to Frenchman’s Bay and Mt. Desert Island. Although Schoodic Peninsula is the only part of Acadia National Park that is connected to the mainland\, it tends to be significantly less crowded than Mt. Desert Island. The peninsula contains many beautiful vistas along its shoreline\, as well as hiking trails. Winter Harbor is the nearest village to Schoodic Point and features a grocery store as well as seasonal restaurants\, galleries\, and shops. \nLodging and Meals: Accommodations are provided by our partner\, Schoodic Institute\, at the Schoodic Education and Research Center (SERC) which they manage. The SERC facility is an educational and research campus located on Schoodic Point and is the only provider of housing inside Acadia National Park. Housing includes a private bedroom with a shared bathroom and common area. Six days of meals\, including hot breakfast\, bag lunch\, and dinner\, are offered from Monday\, July 1st through Saturday\, July 6th. Pack lunches and snacks are provided daily so you can paint the landscape. Our final dinner will be a traditional Downeast Maine Lobster Supper. \nTravel: The retreat-workshop does not provide transportation. Participants will need their own vehicle in order to drive themselves between sites within the park. By Car: Schoodic Institute is a nine (9) hour drive from New York City by car. By Air: Flights from New York City to Bangor International Airport are approximately one-and-a-half (1.5) hours. Major car rental companies are available at the airport. The drive from Bangor\, Maine to Schoodic Institute is approximately one-and-a-half (1.5) hours. \nFees: The retreat-workshop fees are $2\,395 and cover 7 nights lodging\, 6 days of 3 square meals\, and 1 memorable educational experience to transform your painting practice!  (Local commuter rates and non-painting partner rates are available too upon request.) \nFor more information and to enroll\, please visit: https://www.academyeverywhere.com/courses/in-person-landscape-painting-in-acadia-maine-workshop-summer-2025 \n

SUMMARY:2025 The Unforeseen Wilderness: Nature\, Bookbinding\, and Photography with Eliot Dudik
DESCRIPTION:Join a small group of folks for a six-day intensive workshop exploring an unusual confluence of interests: bookbinding\, photography\, and nature walks in one of the most profound places on Earth: Acadia National Park. Tranquility and focus will be our guide as we lodge and work on the Schoodic Peninsula\, often referred to as the “quiet side” of Acadia\, dividing our time between classroom bookbinding sessions and stepping out into a wonderland of spruce\, granite\, and sea. \nThe workshop is led by bookmaker\, photographer\, and educator Eliot Dudik\, who directs the photography program at the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg\, Virginia. He has spent every summer and winter in Maine for the past decade working on his own long-form photography projects\, teaching photography and bookbinding workshops\, and exploring the coast of Maine\, especially the dreamscape of Acadia National Park. He has been visualizing this unique workshop for years and is excited to work with you this summer!\n \nThe structure of the course: Throughout our week together\, we will meet in our workspace to explore bookbinding basics including methods\, materials\, and book structures. All bookbinding tools and materials will be provided. We will practice four different bindings over the course of the week\, each building on skills learned in the previous lesson. These books will be blank and can be used as journals or sketchbooks. \nEach day will be split between classroom bookbinding tutorials and nature walks in the woods of Acadia National Park. Excursions will include morning or afternoon walks\, as well as full day trips to the busier and more popular/populated parts of Acadia on Mount Desert Island. On these nature walks\, we will attempt to take in the famously breathtaking beauty while using cameras\, pencils\, or other artistic tools and Wendel Berry’s essay: The Unforeseen Wilderness to inspire our individualized experiences. \n \nAt the conclusion of our week together\, we will each create a short edit and sequence of photographs\, writings\, sketches\, collages\, or other artworks made in Acadia and produce small books of the work. The photographs can be made with cell phones or more sophisticated digital cameras. Participants will bring their own cameras and ideally a laptop with Adobe Photoshop installed. \nThe available lodging and meal plan complete this unique and immersive experience\, allowing us to disconnect from our everyday lives and truly experience something special\, uniquely embedded inside the national park. This workshop is intentionally limited to a small group of participants to enhance the individualized experience; don’t delay signing up as this workshop will fill quickly! \nFor any questions regarding the workshop\, please contact Eliot directly at eliot@eliotdudik.com. \n
