June 19th, 2020 - CAMP Arts by Doug Yetter

CAMP Rehoboth Puts Art at the Heart of Our Community 

Thanks for Masking!

Happy PRIDE to all you quaran-queens, as well as you introverts continuing to practice anti-social distancing. I’m certain we were all looking forward to another wonderful summer at the beach, but…2020.

So, go pour yourself another quarantini, and stay safe out there. Or in there, as the case may be. 

Let’s Try This Again…

CAMP Rehoboth Gallery is reopening with art that was accepted—but never had the chance to be exhibited—for the Women’s FEST Art Show. Fine artist Caroline Huff selected works by over 25 artists in multiple mediums. The exhibit will be on display June 19-July 23—by appointment and on social media. CDC guidelines will be followed. 

The exhibit features two local artists: Renata Price and Susan Frey. Reflecting her engineering background, Price’s work is very detail oriented, with complex shadows and reflections. Frey’s shapes, lines, and splashes of color are carefully balanced in her work. 

PERFORMING ARTS 

The Rehoboth Beach Bandstand has made the difficult decision not to move forward with their 2020 concert season, and the Freeman Stage has not yet announced a season, or if they will cancel their season.

Cinema Art Theater (17701 Dartmouth Drive, Lewes; 302-313-4032; rehobothfilm.com) has reopened with CDC guidelines in effect and seating capacity has been reduced. Several films will continue to be available for streaming. Check their website for screenings, show times, and new policies. 

Clear Space Theatre Company (20 Baltimore Avenue; 302-227-2270; ClearSpaceTheatre.org) plans to reopen July 6 with social distancing procedures in place for both audiences and actors. Their summer season features Cabaret, Sister Act, and La Cage Aux Folles. Check their website for details. 

The Milton Theater (110 Union Street, Milton; 302-684-3038; miltontheatre.com) had a weekend of shows and events in June and premiered their new Quayside stage, but currently lists only their Summer Camps. Check their website for updates. 

Possum Point Players (441 Old Laurel Road, Georgetown; 302-856-4560; possumpointplayers.org) has moved the majority of their 2020 season into 2021. They are planning to present Godspell in an outdoor location in September.

Second Street Players (2 South Walnut Street, Milford; 302-422-0220 / 800-838-3006; secondstreetplayers.com) has cancelled the remainder of their 2020 season and will present those shows as part of their 2021 lineup.
