Turn your knowledge, hobbies, education, passion, and wealth of experience into dollars from the comfort of your home. A supplement income is refreshingly welcoming for most retirees. Whether you want to discover new ways of making an income or you want to turn your years of work experience into generating income, side hustles are plenty. Freelance writing, plant sitting, dog walking, online tutoring, resume writing using Chat GPT, selling crafts online on Etsy, and much more. These flexible opportunities allow retirees to use their wealth of experience, set their own schedules, stay mentally active, plus make a side income. Wouldn’t that be nice?

For retirees and Seniors, the purpose of AI is a little different than someone in the workforce, running a business, or raising toddlers. Rather than using AI to compete and run the rat race, retirees use AI to improve their life, feel enriched, learn a new skill, and satisfy a curiosity. Retirees and Seniors want to stay in the network of what’s happening out there. This class gives AI tools for memoir making, publishing a book, health & wellness tips, travel planning, finding a cruise for less, tracing genealogy, meal preparation ideas, learning a new language, new hobby like growing bonsai and scrapbooking. No technical knowledge required. Fun, easy to follow class. Objectives: How to use AI to enrich personal lives; How to find cooking recipes; How to find part time hustle using AI.

Designed for beginners but open to all levels, we will use our pastels in a loose, expressive way to create several quick drawings, with the goal of finding new approaches to a very traditional medium. Using expressive mark-making and bold color choices, we will work from a selection of reference photos from our beautiful state of Maine. An array of mats will be provided, with the goal of everyone leaving with something matted that they would consider worthy of display! With this longer workshop format, participants should feel free to bring in a photo they'd like to sketch from as well, but all materials and reference materials are provided. If you have your own pastels you've been meaning to use, please bring them along.

Don’t miss this opportunity to get outside with your fellow artists and enjoy fall colors as we work en plein air across midcoast Maine. You may work in any media you prefer. There will be a mix of oil, acrylic, and pastel painters; watercolor, gouache and ink sketchbook artists, and more. Last year the weather held up through November, and we had a wonderful time enjoying and capturing the fall colors. Register for one or both sessions. Artists of all experience and confidence levels are welcome. If you need extra one-on-one instruction while working in the field, it’s recommended that you set up within eye shot of the instructor so he can get to you easily should you need help. We also found at certain sites that staying in touch via phone and text was a good way to summon Ed to where you are working. Meet up locations will be emailed to everyone prior to each class.
