The Ogunquit Playhouse ARTS AND CULTURE A lively cultural scene contrasted with well- preserved links to the past offers more ways to enlighten, entertain, and enliven your vacation than you had imagined possible. 20 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. A TheMaineBeaches C @ TheMaineBeaches # themainebeaches
