Grand Central School of Art

ART CLASSES IN MAINE CITY.
Eastport's Natural Beauty Makes It Choice of Grand Central School. In addition to a Summer session in this city, the Grand Central School of Art will open Summer classes on July 2 at Eastport, Me., to be conducted by George Pearse Ennis, a former pupil of William M. Chase. Eastport has been selected for the Summer school because of its unspoiled landmarks, according to Edmund Graecen, President of the school, who calls the Maine resort the "Brittany of America." "Brittany has nothing to offer more interesting than the figures of the lobstermen and the boats and fishers of the sardine fleet," Mr. Graecen declared. "There is nothing in the Old World more fascinating than the town itself, with its rambling streets, its old homes, its quaint shacks and the drama of its waterfront."
