PERSPECTIVE[bold] PAGE[bold] 4[bold]

PROFILE[bold]

The career of James M. Carpenter, member of the Maine State Commission on the Arts and Human-­ ities, has been closed connected with the develop­ ment of the Art Department at Colby College, Waterville.

Carpenter, in the early 1950's was the sole mem-­ ber of that department which now consists of four teaching members and a museum director.

Receiving AB and PhD degrees at Harvard Uni­- versity, he taught in the Fine Arts Department at Harvard prior to joining the Colby faculty in 1950. He has been Professor of Art and Chairman of the Art Department at Colby since 1954 and was d-i­ rector of the Art Museum there from its beginning in 1959 to 1966.

Carpenter's teaching has included drawing and painting and now, primarily, art history and criticism. He has supervised many exhibitions at Colby, some of which have traveled to other museums. Among these are "Maine and its Artists" and "Art in the Making," an exhibition of unfinished paintings. He is the author of an article, "Cezanne and Tradition" and a portion of "Maine and its Role in American Art."

Carpenter is a member of the Board of Trustees of Haystack Mountain School of Crafts at Deer Isle and the Board of Governors of the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture.

GRANT-IN-AID[bold]

There is a change in procedure for grant-in-aid applications for Arts and Humanities projects in the fiscal year 1971 (July 1970-June 30, 1971). Deadlines for application submission are set for May 1, 1970, September 15, 1970, and December 1, 1970.

As another change in procedure, the Commission must have more lead time for consideration of pro-­ jects. Therefore, no project should be scheduled to begin earlier than three months after the submission deadline.

Detailed information for applications and appli­- cation blanks may be obtained from the Commission. Obviously, those projects that are submitted for the earliest dates will have the best opportunity for funding. Do not wait for the final date to submit your applications.

PUPPET[bold] THEATRE[bold] SCHEDULE[bold]

Local arrangements are completed for the first performances in Maine by the Smithsonian Puppet Theatre, which will present "A Thousand and One Nights" April 6-12, under the sponsorship of the Commission.

The schedule will be as follows: Monday, April 6, Waterville High School auditorium, performances 3:30 and 7 p. m.; April 7, Portland City Hall Auditorium, 9:30 a. m.; Wednesday, April 8, Rumford High School, performances 9:30 a. m. and 1 p. m.; Thursday, April 9, York High School Auditor-­ ium, 7:30 p. m.; Friday, April 10, Pickard Theatre, Bowdoin College, Brunswick, performances 3 and 8 p. m.; Saturday, April 11, Montello Junior High School, Lewiston, 10 a. m. and 2 p. m.

Margaret H. Shea joined, this winter, the staff of the Commission as Arts and Humanities Associate and since that time has been working on the research, planning and development of a community arts council packet to aid individuals and groups throughout Maine who recognize the need for and want help in organ­- izing community arts councils.

Mrs. Shea developed the Artists On Tour program for the Commission, which is enjoying success and is currently researching the status of literary maga­- zines in Maine in addition to several other projects.

A resident of Maine for over 20 years, she was a freelance writer before becoming the first editor of Down[italics] East[italics] Magazine[italics], a post she held for over five years. During this time at Down[italics] East[italics], she came to know well the vast area of Maine, doing stories on life in the State and on its people, both famous and little known.

Born and educated in Massachusetts, Mrs. Shea first responded to the delights and rigors of Maine while attending summer camp in York County. Since that time, though she has traveled extensively in this country and many parts of Europe, Maine has always been "homeport," even during the past nine years in New York City where she worked as a writer and editor.

A graduate of Smith College, Mrs. Shea is the author of two books, both with Maine settings: The Gals They Left Behind, published during World War II, and The Tavern in the Town, which was brought out in 1947.
