Join us in the lobby from 3:00 to 5:30 pm to connect with local artists and community organizations, including OUT Maine and more. It’s a great opportunity to support local creativity and pick up important resources.

 

At 3:30 pm, Ricky Rainbow Beard takes the stage with The Rainbow Beard Show—a joyful, all-ages performance filled with puppets, games, stories, videos, and surprise guests! This special edition explores the theme of DRESS-UP. What does it mean to dress up? When and why do we do it? Come find out in this playful and thoughtful show.

 

At 5:30 we’ll wrap up the evening with a fabulous, family-friendly drag performance featuring some of Maine’s most talented queens. You won’t want to miss it!
