6/14 This or Better
One of Portland's most popular duos, Natalie and Max are “This or Better.” A folk acoustic duo with beautiful harmonies, fingerstyle guitar picking and a charismatic vibe that have stolen the hearts of many. Their repertoire includes original music and prime selections from the classics: John Prine, Dolly Parton, Buck Owens, Johnny Cash, June Carter, Willie Nelson, Townes Van Zandt and so many more. They are a heart-filled act any audience will enjoy!

6/21 Seth Gallant
Seth grew up in a mill town in rural Western Maine to a family that played music on the front porch at almost any occasion. These traditions of folk, country, and Acadian music would shape the songs he writes and performs today. Gallant is set to release a new album in 2025, a collection of songs that celebrate simplicity in rural living. This will be his second full length album. Alongside recording and releasing music, he has preformed throughout New England and the northeast since 2021.

Working with the ebb and flow of a painting reveals what is ‘known’, ‘observed’, ‘sensed’ and what is slightly out of reach altogether. Each painting, a reminder, that resolution is elusive and paint has it’s say. To observe, reflect and respond to the nature of paint, subject, and self is painting.

Food and beverages compliments of Hannaford & National Distributors. Beth’s show will run from 9/6-10/26

This American Legion Post #36 Breakfast Buffet has been a tradition spanning many years now. Aside from a few minor unforeseen and unavoidable changes, most everything else remains the same. All who enter the Legion Hall doors on a Breakfast Buffet Sunday, will get a great meal for a fair price/donation, get to see old friends and/or family, or meet someone interesting for the first time. The menu items have satisfied many folks over the years, and I have no doubt that this year will be no different. So come and enjoy the Legion Buffet Breakfast this season, enjoy the food, enjoy the camaraderie, and learn how you (Yes, You) can play a key role in this year's breakfast season - or next year's season. There are a number of very important people who make these breakfasts a success each year, if you have any interest in becoming a volunteer or member of the breakfast crew - ask for the least important person in the mix (Christopher) when you arrive for breakfast. These breakfast buffets take place every other Sunday starting on April 2, 2025.
