The second weekend of August, Jean Kigel celebrates 25 years of exhibiting art in Maine at Jean Kigel Studio + Gallery, 1396 Back Cove Road, in Waldoboro.   

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, Aug. 8, 9, and 10, from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m., the public is invited to”Eastern Views,” a collection of paintings that flow with the spirit of East Asia and the beauty of Maine.   

"Come smell the salt air in her paintings of Monhegan," said Jean Kigel Studio. "Experience the quietude of Japanese mountains."

Kigel’s show includes a retrospective of her Maine Lobster Festival poster paintings. In addition one can view her traveling show “Displacement” which tackles the suffering, terror, and hope of the world’s immigrants.

Eastern Views takes place in conjunction with SoWA, a tour of twelve south-of-Waldoboro artists’ studios. Map available at www.sowamaine.org. 

Light refreshments will be available. Preview Kigel’s work at www.jeankigel.wordpress.com.
