PACA continues its series of Creative Conversations focused on the business of the arts. On Tuesday, November 18th, join PACA and moderator Jessica Tomlinson for a discussion about promoting your work. Speakers from local art galleries, music promoters, and events coordinators from local non-profits will offer their advice and guidance.

Creative Conversations takes place at SPACE Gallery, 538 Congress St.; doors open at 6:30, event starts at 7 pm. This event is free and open to the public.  We look forward to seeing you there!

Portland was ranked 41st in a recent issue of National Geographic Traveler’s Top 109 Historic Destinations in the World! High marks were given for Portland’s “aesthetic charm as a port city.” Among the six major criteria for the selection, National Geographic rated social and cultural integrity, aesthetic appeal, and outlook for the future. The artists, performers and institutions of Portland have yet again brought international recognition to our city!

Portland scored #7 on the U.S. News top ten healthiest places to retire to, citing the mountain forests, rugged coast, and islands of Casco Bay as part of the allure. Artists have been flocking to Maine, and Portland, for the same inspiration for many years. Hooray for Portland!

On September 13, Portland’s Lincoln Park will be the place for a day of local art, craft and music. Sponsored by Craft Magazine and Etsy, the event is from 11 to 6 pm. See you there!
