Haley Art Gallery Thanksgiving Exhibit & Sale

This Thanksgiving weekend, do something special.

Top your Thanksgiving weekend pleasure with a visit to the York Harbor’s Stage Neck Inn Resort to enjoy Haley Art Gallery‘s  day-long art exhibit & special sale on Saturday, Nov. 28.  Don’t forget to bring along your holiday gift list.

Start the day at 10am with a preview of the exhibit of original paintings, sculptures, pottery and hand-made, unique jewelry, home décor and crafts by Gallery artists of the seacoast and beyond. 

By mid-day, return to join friends and family for a Stage Neck Inn tradition—afternoon tea/coffee – and relish the Gallery’s  Victorian Tea-Time Art.  Sip gourmet tea or coffee surrounded with original art — and find something special for everyone on your holiday gift list.  Select the artworks and enjoy great savings. 

Plan on dining at the Stage Neck Inn’s restaurants – but before finalizing your dinner plans join us for a wine and cheese reception (5-7pm) as we close our day-long  exhibit and sale. 

Be sure to return to Stage Neck Inn to enjoy the splendid ocean views and award winning cuisine and accommodations. While visiting, stop at the lobby display of Haley Art Gallery’s unique art gifts which will continue to be available at the Inn’s lobby for the remainder of 2009. 

 =========

Beginning in October, you can find a wide selection of Haley Art Gallery’s unique art and gift items available at York Harbor’s Stage Neck Inn Resort lobby display. 

Besides being one of Maine’s premier resort properties, Stage Neck Inn is a AAA Four Diamond Award winner since 1976.  But more importantly, Stage Neck Inn holds a special place in our family’s heart as our regular vacation spot for more than a decade while we were still residents of Massachusetts.  Our children learned to swim at the Inn’s indoor pool and watched movies in their activities room and roamed about the Inn and its outdoor pool.  Even now, as residents of Maine, we love our time at the York Harbor beach and the Inn’s restaurants.

This year, as in previous years, Haley Art Gallery will hold a one day exhibit and sale — on Saturday, Nov. 28 –  featuring works by the Gallery’s 2009 artists and artisans from the seacoast and beyond – as well as unique Fair Trade gifts and crafts. 

The  day-long art exhibit and sale will begin at 10 am.   We will have Victorian tea-time table set up for patrons and visitors to relax while browsing the exhibit.  An opening wine and cheese reception will be held 5-7pm.

We hope you’ll join us anytime during the day — and consider dining at the Inn’s restaurant or Grill.
