| Historian, Genealogist, Musician, Boat Builder, Author, Raconteur - there is only one Ralph Stanley. Ralph bears many titles and awards, but for the Southwest Harbor Public Library he is, most of all, a friend. Ralph started using the library as a child and continued as an adult, graduated to Trustee, to President of the Trustees, and, in 2013, became our first Trustee Emeritus. Since 2007 he has spent hundreds of hours patiently identifying people, places and vessels in the Digital Archive. He gave the library his vast collection of photographs, The Ralph Warren Stanley Collection, in 2014. For years he has told us stories of his family, friends and adventures on Mount Desert Island. Archivists have written down almost every word and fact – a treasure for the collection and for the community. This is his chef d’oeuvre, The Stanleys of Cranberry Isles…and Other Colorful Characters, Ralph’s own story, based on his own research and in his own words. To purchase the print version of this book please contact the Southwest Harbor Public Library at archivist@swhplibrary.org or (207) 244-7065. | Description: Historian, Genealogist, Musician, Boat Builder, Author, Raconteur - there is only one Ralph Stanley.

14918 | Painting Islands - Uniting Community with Art |
|
| This personal art project of Howie Motenko used participatory art and the photographic technique of light painting on all the 15 year-round Maine Islands. His idea was to assemble a team of resident island volunteers who, wielding flashlights, would “paint” an iconic scene with light while he created a long-exposure photograph. Howie partnered with the Maine Seacoast Mission and the Island Institute as a conduit to begin a dialogue with each local island community and travel support to each of the islands during the shoot. The project kicked off in May of 2014. The project is funded in part by the Maine Arts Commission, an independent state agency supported by the National Endowment for the Arts. | Description: This personal art project of Howie Motenko used participatory art and the photographic technique of light painting on all the 15 year-round Maine Islands.
