The Arts at Eagle Hill

A veneration for the arts transcends time and cultures.

There are deeply emotional reasons why artists dedicate so much of their lives to creating works of art. Imagined within the cultural setting at the time of their creation, works of art serve as portals through which one can envisage the lives of artists and their relationships with others, all within a regional and indeed a global context during interludes in history.

The Eagle Hill Institute is re-envisaging its commitment to the world of the arts. We are doing so by planning for the construction of a cultural center on the western slope of Eagle Hill, the only inhabited peninsula summit on the eastern Maine coast, and the only peninsula between Schoodic Point of Acadia National Park and Petit Manan National Wildlife Refuge.

Two of the primary missions for cultural center are to serve as a fine arts museum and as a center for inspiring interest among contemporary artists and art conservators.
