After serving as a professor at Wheaton College in Massachusetts for 26 years\, Kola settled in Deer Isle\, Maine in 1994. Seemingly untouched\, picturesque locations in and around Deer Isle\, have provided an endless supply of inspiration for Kola’s landscapes. Many of the oil on canvas paintings in the exhibition are inspired by locations in Maine\, and in fact\, some are but a stone’s throw from the artist’s studio. Kola has a great affinity for his remote island which\, with its terrain\, flora and climate\, reminds him of his Finnish homeland.   \nTuesday-Saturday\, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. URL:/event/me-vaino-kola-art-exhibit/ LOCATION:Zillman Art Museum\, Bangor\, Maine END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20240601 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20240930 DTSTAMP:20240602T093706Z CREATED:20240602T093706Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240602T093706Z UID:16724-1717200000-1727654399@finlandiafoundation.org SUMMARY:OR: Tree People/Puiden Kansa DESCRIPTION:World Forestry Center presents Tree People\, an exhibition by Finnish photographers Ritva Kovalainen and Sanni Seppo.
