Chocolate Church Arts Center, Bath, Maine
How do community traditions inform where we’ve been and where we’re going?
How are folklives an expression of our place in the world?
Join Maine Humanities and Chocolate Church Arts Center for a special public event celebrating the stories we tell through music and foodways, and what they say about our connections to the past and our hopes for the future. This evening event will include a community meal, musical performances, dance, and a panel discussion with the featured guests and performers.
This program is part of By the People: Conversations Beyond 250, a series of community-driven programs created by humanities councils in collaboration with local partners. The initiative was developed by the Federation of State Humanities Councils and the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage.
