We were in the rear of the first floor orchestra section and it was fine. Parking is fairly easy to find, even during Christmas shopping time like when we went. They are trying to do the right thing currently during Clovis, requiring masks and proof of vaccination. Of course they can't do much about the losers who take them off once they sit down. They made an announcement, but you can hardly except volunteers to go around and enforce the rule and risk a scene with a yahoo. I only had a minor beef with them when we went: our show started 20 minutes late . There was no obvious reason as attendees had stopped coming in. Normally I wouldn't have cared, but it had started snowing earlier and I would have preferred to hit the road sooner and gotten home before midnight. It was a stressful drive, but that wouldn't prevent me from attending another event -- perhaps not in the dead of winter, though!

There are two support columns so if you are sitting in certain seats on the right side or left side of the 3rd balcony there may be a slight obstruction. I was there for a concert so it was not a huge deal but if it was a show or play it would have been more problematic. The staff is friendly and helpful. The acoustics are great. Beautiful, old opera house.

If you're a classical music lover like me, this is probably the best music you'll hear in Maine. The musicians are world class and the orchestra is just amazing. You'll need to give at least $100 to hear them at paying events, but amazingly the concerts are free, so without saying this is as good as it gets. Highly recommended!

It's redeeming qualities are that it is a short drive from many beautiful spots in Maine, and the concerts are free. (So yes, technically the concerts are more affordable than RC Cola.) With other thoughtful chamber music festivals dotting the coastline, it's not clear what keeps this festival afloat.

What a unique and wonderful find!…read more I wanted to see a movie that came out less than two weeks ago, but when I searched showtimes my usual (closer to home) theater had no more showings. But Maine Film Center was listed with showtimes, so I decided to give this new place a try! And I'm so glad I did! The building and amenities are all new and stunning! The theater was small but had very comfortable seats (all with cup holders). The audio and visual quality was excellent too. I bought a small popcorn too and it was the best popcorn I've ever had at a movie theater! The popcorn kernels had great natural flavor and were enhanced only with a sprinkle of salt and the optional butter, which tasted like real melted butter. There was no taste of icky oils and powders like at other movie theaters. However, for those wanting a bolder flavor, there was an array of popcorn seasonings on the counter for customers to add to their popcorn if they so choose. The staff was also pleasant and helpful, helping me with my transactions, pointing me in the direction of restrooms, and answering any of my questions. I highly recommend the Maine Film Center and I look forward to going back!

They clearly care about learning and exploration. The touch tank was fun for the kids who might not get to interact with wildlife very often. The kids were thrilled by the skid steer.... but maybe this is because they're typically not allowed near the front of our vehicle. It was nice to take a step back from technology, and watch the kids be able to freely engage with their creative imaginations. I honestly wish there were more places like this. I'm definitely going to keep up with all of their changes, and maybe get involved in some of the volunteer opportunities. Excited for the fairy festival in September and looking to see what I can do to help. At only $6 a person for the day, this is quite a deal!

I have some amazing photos and incredible memories. One of the biggest reasons we chose this venue is because of the event coordinator Elaine. She is their best asset. She helped us plan every detail. She offered suggestions and advice as we needed if. She was always available and prompt with responses. She stayed from the time the girls arrived to get ready until late at night until everyone had their last drink. She made sure our night went perfect. We knew once we met Elaine we wouldn't have to worry about a thing. She is wonderful. The rest of the staff the worked at the event were excellent. They were fun, engaging, polite and friendly. They led the electric slide during some dancing. They also worked incredibly hard while they were chatting with us and all of our guests. They were always asking can I get you anything. They all went above and beyond during the entire night. The food was great. We had lunch while getting ready. It had sandwhiches cheese fruit chips and drinks. This was just the fuel we needed before a busy day ahead. Lori even came in to greet us and ask how everything was going and made sure we had everything we needed. During our cocktail hour we chose some apps that were yummy and perfect for while people were mingling. The meatballs and spring rolls were excellent. The cheese and olive tray with fruit and cheese were great The meal we chose was buffet style with steak tips, teriyaki chicken, carrots, mashed potato and dinner rolls. The salad was served at each table. The food was great lots of flavor and served hot. This is a fabulous location with so much to offer. Everyone there is wonderful. Thank you all for a gorgeous day.
