This walk is part of Jane’s Walk Maine, a statewide festival of free, volunteer-led walking conversations inspired by community activist Jane Jacobs. Jane’s Walks combine the simple act of exploring a place with personal observations, local history, and civic engagement. For more information and for the full list of the 50+ walks happening all over Maine on May 2, visit the Jane’s Walk Maine website. Thanks to our partner organizations Maine Preservation and Greater Portland Landmarks for putting these walks into action!
