Calling all history buffs!

Do your coworkers’ eyes glaze over when you bring up the Burning of Falmouth in 1775? Are you looking for a social circle where people won’t avoid eye contact when you mention the Aroostook War, Dorothea Dix, or your favorite hobby of restoring Gilded Age doorknobs? Do you enjoy the camaraderie and fun of Portland’s culinary scene? Join Maine Historical Society’s Audience Engagement Director, Lauren Webster for an entirely informal opportunity to socialize and converse. In September, we’ll meet at Top of the East, 157 High Street, Portland to mingle, hang out, and chat a little history! Hope to see you there!

Our History Happy Hour offerings are held on the second Monday of every month at a different establishment in greater Portland from 5:30–7:30 p.m.
