Are you harboring good wishes for the future? Artascope invites you to bring them to our Community Wishing Tree. Artascope Studios and Gorham Savings Bank are partnering this holiday season to bring a Community Wishing Tree display to the Bickford Pavilion in Yarmouth. Envision a tree (or a forest of trees) adorned with beautiful, 3 dimensional star shaped ornaments and ribbons, each containing their maker’s wish for the future.
Pick up your free ornament kit before November 28th at one of the following Yarmouth Locations. (One kit per creator please. Each kit makes 3 stars.)
317 Main Community Music Center
Gorham Savings Bank at 288 Main Street
The Bickford Pavilion at 1 Railroad Square
Artascope staff members will host 3, free ornament-making classes;
- Saturday, Nov 28th 10AM (in person outside at Bickford Pavilion, 1 Railroad Square)
- Thursday, Dec 3rd, 7PM via Zoom (link on Artascope Facebook page)
- Friday, Dec 4th, 7PM via Zoom (link on Artascope Facebook page)
On Saturday, December 5th from 11am-12pm makers are invited to join us for an outdoor, socially distanced, tree-trimming celebration at the Bickford Pavilion where we’ll hang the ornaments, enjoy a cup of cocoa, and some holiday music provided by 317 Main Community Music Center.
We will also have a craft table set up at the event so everyone can participate by making a simpler version of the star or a ribbon. (Great for younger children.)
If none of our workshop times work for you, we’ve made a 17-minute video that takes you through the process of creating an ornament. You can also download a PDF with written instructions HERE.
Let the wishing begin.
