Dec 8th: Bangor Arts Exchange
This is a difficult time for many, including local arts groups and organizations. The holiday season is typically a time when they make a large chunk of their revenue, and so we must support them now if we want them to be around when the dust settles. Join Greendrinks as we celebrate the arts in our community during our next virtual event on Tuesday, December 8th from 5-8 pm. This event will be an online social gathering like the ones we’ve been doing recently.
For December, we are featuring and raising funds for the Bangor Arts Exchange (BAE). BAE may be the physical space in downtown Bangor where many events occur, but we’re also using it as a way to focus attention on the various arts groups and organizations that rely on the space in so many ways. Some of those groups and organizations will be posting content on this event page for your entertainment during the holiday season. For more information about BAE and associated groups and organizations: https://bangorartsexchange.org.
There’s also going to be an opportunity for you to win a $25 Buoy Local gift card! Everyone who likes and shares BAE’s intro video, once it’s available, by 8 pm on December 8th will be entered for a chance to be the randomly selected winner of the gift card!
We also love it when you let us know that you’re attending the event! Be sure to post messages, photos, and short videos on the event wall to let us know that you’re attending.
And if you can, please help support BAE financially. If feasible, we’d ask you to consider donating your usual $5 to Greendrinks, and all of the money that we raise on December 8th and for a few weeks after will be passed on to BAE. We’ll also be selling hard copies of our Bangor Area Trails map for $5, with all proceeds going to the same organization; to purchase the map, see our PayPal site: https://www.paypal.com/instantc…/checkout/2QABGAWQVGS26….
Finally, be sure to watch when the Bangor Greendrinks Chair, Mark, goes live for “the talk” around 6:30 pm on December 8th. This is the “Facebook Live” portion of the evening.
See you at the next event when we celebrate the arts in the Bangor area!
Cheers!
The Bangor Greendrinks Familia
