Become a Gala Patron

Patrons of Maine Preservation’s Annual Preservation Gala receive recognition and exposure to an influential audience of over 200 corporate, civic, and community leaders while supporting the important work of Maine Preservation. Our annual Gala is our most important fundraiser.  It is spectacular event that celebrates our recent accomplishments enhancing the vitality and revitalization of communities through the reuse of Maine’s historic buildings. Each year we expect over 200 people to be in attendance.

The virtual program will feature a video exploring the rich history of Maine’s apple orchards, historic barns, and indigenous settlements, accompanied by a virtual statewide map. We will also offer an auction of select items and experiences, as well as our annual paddle raise in support of the Patricia Anderson Summer Fellowship program. To add to the celebration, a Maine harvest snack kit will be shipped to your home, and we are also pleased to offer a very special raffle for an indigenous basket filled with items from Maine’s bountiful harvest. Gala patrons will also be listed on the webpage that will house the Maine’s Harvest and Bounty virtual map experience.
