SUMMARY:Author Talk with Screenwriter-Turned-Novelist Jule Selbo\, of The Dee Rommel Mysteries
DESCRIPTION:The library welcomes Maine-based author Jule Selbo for an in person event on Tuesday\, February 7 at 6:00 PM. Selbo will share about her writer’s journey from Hollywood as a screenwriter for the major studios\, to her turn to novel writing. Selbo has written historical fiction as well as her award-winning crime-mystery series: The Dee Rommel Mysteries that take place in Portland\, Maine. Selbo will be reading from her work as well as discuss craft\, the building of stories\, and where ideas come from. Questions are welcome. \n\n\n\n\nJule Selbo left a long career as a produced screenwriter (tv and film) in Los Angeles to move to Maine and focus on writing novels. Her first was a mystery/romance called FIND ME IN FLORENCE\, (1st Place Chatelaine Award) followed by two historical fiction novels\, one about the amazing experimental physicist Laura Bassi in the 1700s\, (Breaking Barriers\, recipient of a Goethe Award) the other about Giovanni Caboto (we know him as John Cabot) who\, in 1497\, sailed under England’s flag and claimed a large portion of the eastern seaboard for King Henry VII.  \n\n\n\n\n\nJule moved into her favorite genre – mystery crime: her Dee Rommel Mystery Series is well underway.  The first book: 10 DAYS: A Dee Rommel Mystery earned a spot on the Top-Five list of Kirkus’ 2021 best crime/mysteries from small publishers\, won the Silver Falchion Award for Best Investigator Novel at Killer Nashville\, was a finalist for a Maine Literary Award\, a 2021 Clue Award and a Foreword Review Award. The second book in the ten-part series is 9 DAYS\, A Dee Rommel Mystery\, which also received a starred Kirkus Review and nominated for a 2022 Clue Award. \n\n\n\n“The deeply complex character of Dee Rommel is back in another scintillating mystery from author Jule Selbo\, it’s like having a drink with an old friend who you know much about but still have so much more to learn. \n\n\n\n– Matt Cost\, author of the Clay Wolfe/Port Essex Mystery Series and the Goff Langdon Trilogy \n\n\n\n\nLearn more about Jule Selbo and her published works at www.juleselbo.com

SUMMARY:Mid-Coast Audubon Series: Access Birding with Freya McGregor - On Zoom
DESCRIPTION:The Mid-Coast Audubon‘s series of nature talks in partnership with the Camden Public Library continues with an online program about Easy Ways to Increase Access and Inclusion for Disabled Birders. \n\n\n\nJoin us online via Zoom on February 16th at 6 pm. Use this link to register and attend on Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_nMEeNI_HQIGH4KS-djV-7Q \n\n\n\nWe can get so much out of birding: a fun activity to enjoy\, a sense of community\, the therapeutic benefits from time spent in nature… Unfortunately\, there are barriers to birding and the outdoors that many people with various access challenges experience. The good news is\, we can often do something about it! Learn basic disability etiquette for birders\, broaden your idea of what birding is\, and learn practical\, replicable strategies to make birding locations more accessible and bird-related programming more inclusive for disabled birders. \n\n\n\nPresenter Freya McGregor (she/her)\, OTR/L\, CIG is a disabled birder and an occupational therapist. Freya co-founded the nonprofit Birdability\, and now provides consulting and training through her business Access Birding to empower birders and nature organizations to be confident agents of change in improving access and inclusion for disabled birders. Her clinical background is in blindness and low vision services\, and her ‘dodgy’ knee creates an access challenge for her. Freya has written about access\, inclusion\, disability and birding for Audubon magazine\, Birding magazine\, and the LA Times\, and is currently writing A Field Guide to Accessible Birding in North America\, to be published by Princeton University Press.

SUMMARY:Sugar\, Sex\, and Poison: Shocking Plant Secrets Caught on Camera - Camden Garden Club Winter Horticulture Series
DESCRIPTION:Camden Garden Club’s 55th Annual Winter Horticulture SeriesJanuary 31 – February 28\, 2023 \n\n\n\nJoin us this winter for a fascinating series of free horticulture talks\, presented by the Camden Garden Club and hosted online by the Harvard Museum of Natural History and the Camden Public Library. Programs will be held via Zoom on Tuesdays at 10:00 AM\, January 31– February 28\, 2023. The full list of programs hosted by the Camden Public Library can be found here. \n\n\n\nWHAT: Free Zoom talk about plant photography and botanyWHEN: Tuesday\, February 21\, 10:00 am -11:00 am on Zoom through Camden Public LibraryTICKETS: Event is free and open to the public | event pre-registration is required (see below) \n\n\n\nUse this link to register on Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_voimZT3_QJ2lsotg_vK3_A \n\n\n\n\nPlants are at the base of both the human and non-human food chain. Everything eats them directly or indirectly\, which may or may not be a good thing as far as plants are concerned. Because they do not move around\, it is easy to forget that plants are not helpless. They have evolved an incredible arsenal of chemicals\, camouflage\, spines\, hairs\, and waxes to discourage herbivores. On the other hand\, they spend a huge amount of their energy on pollen\, nectar\, edible fruits\, and sugary root exudates designed to attract and nourish animals\, insects\, fungi and bacteria so they can perform services such as pollination\, seed dispersal\, defense\, and nutrient acquisition.  \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nIt is a carefully balanced natural economy and community based on the products of photosynthesis that is amazing in its complexity and efficiency. Strengthening this natural economy through sound horticultural and agricultural practices is in essence what the organic movement is all about. In this talk\, Bill Cullina will show how this world of pollen\, poisons\, pigments\, pheromones\, sugars and sex translates to sound organic practices from which we can all benefit. \n\n\n\n\nWilliam Cullina (kul-EYE-nuh) is the F. Otto Haas Executive Director of the Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania. Prior to this he was the President and CEO of Coastal Maine Botanic Garden for eleven years. Cullina holds degrees in plant science and psychology\, has been working in public horticulture for 25 years\, and has extensive experience in in horticultural and forestry research\, and commercial nursery production.  \n\n\n\nA well-known author and recognized authority on North American native plants\, Cullina lectures on a variety of subjects to garden and professional groups and writes for popular and technical journals. His books include\, Wildflowers\, Native Trees\, Shrubs\, and Vines\, Understanding Orchids\, Native Ferns\, Mosses\, and Grasses\, and Understanding Perennials.

SUMMARY:Special Creative Art Afternoon in the Page Gallery!
DESCRIPTION:On February 23\, Miss Amy will hold a special Creative Art Afternoon in the Page Gallery\, located at 23 Bay View Street in Camden. This event is free and open to the public! Call 236-3440 to sign up. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn View Now at Page GalleryCollaborative Mural Project After Dahlov Ipcar’s Bright Barnyard \n\n\n\nWhile their friends cozied up to woodstoves with cocoa and businesses throughout town closed due to record-breaking cold temperatures\, nine intrepid young artists gathered in the warmth of a collaborative studio space in Page Gallery at 23 Bay View Street in Camden. Each February the gallery gives its walls over to the children of the community for its Youth Art Exhibition. This year’s prompt is to create a piece of art depicting the animals you love best. \n\n\n\nProminently displayed on a wall of its own\, the mural is a featured work in the show. After shedding coats\, hats and mittens and claiming a spot around one of two long work tables filled with panels\, palettes\, brushes\, paints and a variety of collage materials\, the gallery’s owner\, Colin Page\, provided an overview on the artist and work selected this year. The children would recreate a piece from one of Maine’s best known and most loved artists\, Dahlov Ipcar (1917-2017). Born into a family of artists\, Dahlov’s home was filled with creativity and her imagination encouraged. Her love of animals inspired the decorative patterns and geometric designs that would become her artistic signature. Colin explained that each child would work on a section of Dahlov’s painting from her book Bright Barnyard\, a colorful scene of chickens\, roosters\, guinea hens\, chicks and geese first published in 1966. Once complete\, their individual efforts would be hung together to reveal the full painting. “Copying artists is a great way to learn\, gather ideas and inspiration\, practice skills and create something new\,” said Colin. \n\n\n\nUndaunted by the blank panels before them\, the artists set to work\, squeezing paint onto palettes\, mixing colors and selecting brushes. Gallery staff took on the role of studio assistants\, helping to clean brushes\, refresh water glasses and track down beans\, yarn and pasta for mixed media needs. Gallery manager\, Kirsten Surbey\, read Ipcar’s Bright Barnyard aloud while the children painted. The atmosphere was relaxed\, cooperative and fun. The children\, ranging in age from 8 to 13 years old\, enjoyed working alongside their peers and took breaks to look at each other’s paintings and get ideas. \n\n\n\nText accompanying the exhibit\, encourages visitors to explore The Farnsworth Art Museum in neighboring Rockland to see Dahlov’s 1965 Jungle Pool painting in person. “Dahlov is a national treasure\, and she believed that children should be free to express themselves artistically with any materials they might find\, and in ways that might be different. She used her powers of observation and pleasure in art-making to draw us into the possibilities of our imagination. The Farnsworth invites children and their adults to explore Dahlov’s Jungle Pool and the creations of many artists living and working in Maine today during our 75th Anniversary Year\,” said Jane Bianco\, Farnsworth curator.   \n\n\n\nThe Youth Art Exhibition will be on display through February 28th. Gallery visitors are invited to participate in activities stationed throughout the exhibition including\, community painting\, weaving\, puppet making and paper cutting activities. In collaboration with the Camden Public Library\, the children’s librarian will convene a special Saturday story time in the gallery on February 25th from 1:00-2:00 pm and will host a Creative Art Afternoon in the gallery from 4:00-5:00 pm on Thursday\, February 23rd. These programs are free and open to the public.
