As the curtain rose on “Nomadland” at Lincoln Theater March 19, Andrew Fenniman couldn’t have been happier. The sold out audience of 50, masked and socially distanced, was ready – despite the pandemic.
Despite the state’s 50% capacity for theaters, opera houses and the like, at this point during the pandemic, Fenniman said the theater will probably stay at 50 for quite some time, or maybe 60.
“We could have 125 people, but we want people to be safe, and to feel safe,” Fenniman said.
To that end, Fenniman oversaw the upgrading of the ventilation system. Air from the outside passes through the new disinfection filters of UV-C lights and bipolar ionization six times per hour. Inside air is replaced by outside air twice each hour.

River Arts in Damariscotta invites artists to submit work to a juried show “Land and Sea.” The deadline for entry is Saturday, May 22 at 4 p.m. River Arts is pleased to announce the juror will be Jane Dahmen. The show will run from May 26 to July 3, 2021.
Jane Dahmen is a contemporary landscape painter whose work is inspired by the natural environment of Midcoast Maine. Known for her large immersive works, Dahmen expresses, “The natural world is my point of departure, but playing with the wet colors leads me into emotional terrain, and the form, color, and surface texture evolve as the painting comes alive.” Dahmen exhibits her work at the Portland Art Gallery and can be viewed on her website: www.janedahmen.com.
The Maine Art Gallery in Wiscasset has gathered a number of noteworthy, yet affordable, works of art for an online auction that will be open for bidding May 1 to June 15.
