As we continue to highlight the incredible work of our members, this month we are highlighting OUT Maine. We encourage you to explore the work of OUT Maine by visiting their website to explore their programs, resources, and opportunities, or following them on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.

Organization: OUT Maine

Mission: OUT Maine’s mission is to work towards a welcoming and affirming Maine for our rural youth of non-confirming sexual orientation, gender expression and gender identity through support, education and empowerment of these youth, their allies and families.

Upcoming Programs: OUT Maine has partnered with the Center for Maine Contemporary Art (CMCA), Rock City Cafe in Rockland, and Erickson Fields in Rockport to bring LGBTQ+ and allied youth and young adults’ art and writing to Midcoast Maine during Pride Month with Visions of Inclusion: Youth Pride Art Show & Pride Walk, June 1st - 30th. Additionally, September 23rd – 25th, OUT Maine will present Haystack/OUT Maine Art Weekend. Art Teachers and GSTA Advisors nominated LGBTQ+ Juniors and Seniors for this studio-immersion weekend, with workshops that take place at scenic Deer Isle and are led by renowned LGBTQ+ artist-faculty from around the country. More information on these events can be found on OUT Maine’s website.
