Mary Laury Launches Coastal-Inspired Exhibit
Following her retirement as Executive Director of Schoodic Arts for All, Mary Laury embarks on a vibrant encore career, leading Acadian Arts Retreats and teaching throughout the region.
Her latest exhibit features paintings and pottery inspired by the Maine coast—rocky shores, blueberry fields, garden blooms, and ever-present gulls. Each piece reflects the beauty and spirit of the place she loves.
This exhibit will be on display from November 5 through January 5 at Hammond Hall with an Opening Reception on Sunday, November 23, from 2pm - 4pm.
About the Artist
Mary Laury is an artist based in coastal Maine specializing in watercolors. She was the Executive Director of Schoodic Arts for All. She has now returned to her first love, teaching painting and drawing.
The dynamic nature and botanical subjects of Maine are Mary’s passions. You can see her paintings exhibited at various galleries along the coast of her home state. An experienced teacher, she has taught painting, drawing and dancing both in the classroom and in the field, for many educational programs. Back in 1999, Laury signed on to teach, painting, drawing and ballroom dancing at Schoodic Arts’ inaugural arts festival. A painter whose work was carried in at least six galleries, she went on to stage the group’s first visual arts show. She was hired as the organization’s first executive director. Laury says she will continue to teach painting and drawing.
