KINGFIELD — The second to the last Kingfield Friday Artwalk of the winter will be held from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 1.
Exhibitions continue with new members added to one venue and an experienced musician performing at a popular restaurant.
Additional venues include Red Barn Upcycled Market and the Stadler Gallery of Contemporary Art. Red flags denote which venues are participating, and most offer light refreshments. The High Peaks Artisan Guild, on Main Street across from the Herbert Grand Hotel, welcomes new member Outdoor Babies, comprising Carol Hardy and Joni Hewitt, who met at University of Maine at Farmington in 1976. Outdoor Babies grew out of Hardy knitting for her grandchildren.
Their work includes sweaters, hats, booties, vests and jumpers. HPAG also features fine paintings, crafts, jewelry, weaving, photography, cards, woodwork and more.
Rolling Fatties will feature Brent Laflin playing from 5 to 8 p.m. Laflin has been performing for more than 30 years with roots in alternative rock and roll, from which he has branched out to a genre-defying alternative folk. He is a singer/songwriter who, in addition to writing his own music, puts a twist on popular songs ranging from Smokey Robinson to Modern English to Amos Lee.
he Ski Museum of Maine, on the corner of Depot and Main streets, continues its exhibition on the state’s participation in the Olympics from the 1940s to present day. Maine is rich in ski history, and it’s the museum’s purpose to help people realize it and recognize the place this history holds in the American ski world.
The next Kingfield Friday Artwalk is March 1, the final Artwalk of the winter. Artwalk culminates June 28, Kingfield POPS weekend. For more information, follow Kingfield Friday Artwalk on Facebook.
