| Western Maine Art Group | | 480 Main St, P.O. Box 122 | | Norway, ME 02468 | | Phone : 207-739-6161 | | The Western Maine Art Group, in its 46th year, is enjoying resurgence in the art scene of the Western Maine area and beyond. Under the leadership of its first-ever executive director, Aranka Matolcsy and a new and energetic board of directors, many new and exciting things are happening during this revitalization of the group and its gallery, the Lajos Matolcsy Art Center at 480 Main Street in Norway.The Western Maine Art Group(WMAG) was founded in 1962 by the Hungarian Fine Artists Professor Lajos Matolcsy (1905-1982) and two of his students, Lee Bean and Ellie Viles (1915-2003). After Lajos and his Maine-born wife Claire (1926-1989) moved to their farm on Ryerson Hill in South Paris, he became a teacher, mentor, and leader in the arts culture of Western Maine. With 100 students and the lack of a good facility for art shows or an organization to support the arts, the Western Maine Art Group was born. | | SEND ENQUIRY VISIT WEBSITE ADD A REVIEW |
