Adell Donaghue Painting

“Cabin in Sullivan” by Adell Donaghue • Oil on canvas mounted on panel 11.5” x 8.5” (17.5” x 14.5” with frame)

“Cabin in Sullivan” is part of a series of oil paintings based on my plein air studies made at Edgewater Cabins in Sullivan, ME. This painting is a study for a larger work.

Adell exhibited her artwork last summer at SPL, and she also donated a tiny print to this year’s raffle—enter the $5 raffle pool for a chance to win that, too!

Dundee Limited Edition 2024 Calendar

The only Dundee-approved Dundee 2024 calendar. And its limited edition!

Dundee is the unofficial “mayor of Stonington.” Beloved for his neighborhood walkabouts and house inspections, he holds office hours at Dockside Books & Gifts on West Main Street.

Humblebee Cafe Quilt

Get cozy this Maine winter with a Maine-themed quilt. The fabrics feature oysters, crabs, and, of course, lobsters.

This 60” x 60” quilt was made by 11-year-old Corbin Poole and his grandmother Lucie Tyler. Corbin helps choose and place fabrics; he and his grandmother share their profits. Humblebee Cafe generously donated this quilt in addition to a gift card.

Jill Hoy Painting

“Island and Rocky Coast” by Jill Hoy • Oil on linen 12” x 16”

Working with the particular qualities of Maine light has long been a primary focus of Stonington resident Jill Hoy’s plein air oil paintings. Known for strong composition, energy, and power of place, Jill first came to Deer Isle at age 10 and has operated her gallery since 1986. “Island and Rocky Coast” is oil on linen.

Sam Harrington signed book, At Peace, and Coffee Chat

At Peace author Sam Harrington is offering a coffee chat in addition to a signed copy of his book.

At Peace is the authoritative, informative and reassuring guide to end-of-life care for our aging population. Stonington resident Dr. Sam Harrington practiced medicine for more than 30 years, largely at Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, D.C. 

Stonington Cottage One-Week Rental

Perched above Stonington Harbor, there’s no better view of the town’s working waterfront.

Located on one of the most charming streets in town, East Cottage is the perfect place for a person or couple to enjoy Stonington. Surrounded on three sides by lovely gardens, East Cottage sits high above the village of Stonington with stunning views of the Deer Island Thoroughfare and beyond to the many islands speckling the harbor.
