BANGOR, ME - Maine Discovery Museum team is excited to announce a new event, Arts & Drafts, taking place at the Maine Discovery Museum on July 8th, 2022, from 6 - 8:30 PM.
This inaugural Arts & Drafts event will be the first public fundraising event the Museum has been able to host since 2019. Kate Dickerson, Interim Executive Director, noted, “One of the things we've learned coming out of the pandemic is the importance of hands-on learning and social interaction. We are excited and happy to welcome our adult visitors back to Maine Discovery Museum for this special event to experience both.”
“The Arts & Drafts event offers an adult crowd to get back into the Museum, experience it from a new perspective, and have some fun. In doing so, help support the daily STEAM opportunities the Museum provides.” acknowledged Malorie Sprague, Maine Discovery Museum board member.
