Entitled A Midsum- merNight’sDream,theinstallationisinspired by the roguish Puck of Shakespeare’s riotous comedy. Head downstairs to the PMA Work- shop for an interactive art experience. Chan- nel your inner Rockwell Kent by illustrating your own interpretation of Herman Mel- ville’s Moby Dick. A speciality cocktail from Aurora Provisions in the PMA café is sure to fuel your creativity. LOngfeLLOw bOund T he PMA can feel like the last stop in the artwalk path, with High Street acting as a natural boundary to the action. However, there’s more to be explored if you wend your way up towards Longfel- low Square. If you’re footsore from travers- ing the many corridors and corners of the PMA, the diminutive but inviting She Bear Gallery (pictured opposite page top left, 650 Congress Street, 239-2088, shebeargal- lery.com) is a welcome alternative. “We’re off the beaten path a bit,” says owner Jen- ny Smick, who opened She Bear in 2013 to showcase the charming woodblock prints by her late mother, Holly Mead. She Bear will also be showing a visiting exhibition of unusual acrylic narrative paintings by Mas- sachusetts artist Steve NegrÓn, opening on the night of the October Artwalk. “It’s not your typical Maine art in here,” says Smick. “We don’t feature seascapes and lighthous- es. I prefer things a little more…eclectic.” The same can be said of Nathaniel Mei- klejohn, owner the Bearded Lady’s Jewelbox (pictured opposite page top right, 644 Con- gress Street, 747-5384, thebeardedladysjewel- box.com). Hard to find but rewarding to dis- cover, the bar certainly feels like the inside of an antique jewelry case, with mismatched an- tique glassware, tiny bouquets of wildflow- ers, and a whimsical mural of the eponymous bearded ladies dominating the wall to the rightofthecurvingpinebar.Tuckedawayup- stairs in the mezzanine, an Aladdin’s Cave of antique furniture and potted plants, we sam- ple the O.D.B. cocktail–rye whiskey, dry ver- mouth, Campari, and fresh grapefruit juice.
