Flying Colors - Benefit Art Auction

Thank you to those who could join us at the Flying Colors Benefit Art Auction held last Friday at the Children's Museum & Theatre of Maine. It was truly incredible to witness the immense talent of our artistic community displayed across our three floors of interactive space.

The evening was a vibrant tapestry of talent and heart, and we are thrilled to announce that with your generous support, we raised over $125,000! This achievement would not have been possible without the dedication and generosity of our sponsors, host committee, artists, vendors, and our entire community. Your involvement was crucial in making this event a success.
