By Land or By Sea, A View from the Surf Community

Engine presents a virtual exhibition By Land or By Sea: A View from the Surf Community on view starting November 28 here.

Due to the rise in COVID, Engine’s gallery will be closed to the public until further notice prompting the move to a virtual exhibition.

By Land or By Sea features artists Chris Gauthier, David Stowell, Diana Abatemaro, Eugene Cole, Gabe Bornstein, Ian MacLellan, Jordan Parks, Juliette Sutherland, Katie Strait, Mathew Anderson, Molly Brown, Nathaniel Kaye, Nick Eaton, Shaina Gates, Tony Hall, and Trent Bell. Works in the exhibition will be available for sale through January 2nd.

By Land or By Sea: A View from the Surf Community, taps into the creativity of the New England surf community, members of which are not only avid surfers, but are also artists in their own right. For avid surfers who want the flexibility to seek out the best possible waves, working as a creative or artist, frequently self-employed, is critical in being able to head out at the drop of a hat or the change of winds. As we move into the darkest winter months of the year in Maine, we will pause to celebrate the sea and those creative, adventurous souls who follow it.

Engine is and has been a focal point of downtown Biddeford for many years for so many artists and creative spirits. It is a go-to for me: a retreat, a destination, a source for connection and ideas and community.

Engine is a wonderful place to work surrounded by wonderful people who have infused so much love and light into the downtown of Biddeford. I cannot imagine a bright future in the town without this wonderful organization.
