Leave the mundane behind to explore our more offbeat performance venues like
Hackmatack Playhouse in Berwick, set on an old family farmstead; and in the cool
ocean breezes of Old Orchard Beach’s Seaside Pavilion. Take your seat for the
best of current theater at the Ogunquit Playhouse, enjoy an intimate performance
at the Vinegar Hill Music Theatre, or attend an event at the newly-opened Sanford
Performing Arts Center or year round at the historic City Theater in Biddeford.
Check local schedules for events like Kennebunk’s Launch! A Maritime Festival or
Ogunquit’s Capriccio, featuring live musical performances, exhibits, tours, and even
kite-flying.
Discover our nation’s naval heritage at the Kittery Historical & Naval Museum.
Kennebunkport’s Seashore Trolley Museum—the oldest and largest of its kind—
offers an antique vehicle collection speaking to the nation’s epic technological leaps
forward in public transportation. Take a step into the past at the Brick Store Museum
in Kennebunk, its locally-kilned exterior unchanged from the 19th century; Old York
with its Old Gaol (old jail); or the Counting House and the Sarah Orne Jewett House
located in South Berwick. Catch up on more recent American history as your tour
the First Families Museum at White Columns.
