The Children's Museum & Theatre of Maine is proud to partner with the Beautiful Blackbird Children's Book Festival again this year! The Museum & Theatre will present a robust in-person schedule of literary and art activities for the whole family, including Read Alouds featuring local community members and art-making workshops. In addition, the Museum & Theatre will offer a Pay What You Can ticketing option for all visitors to eliminate barriers families might face in taking full advantage of our new facility. Thank you to UNUM for their generous support and partnership.
Events for today's Beautiful Blackbird Festival will be happening at least once an hour starting at 9:30am and finishing at 3pm! More information on specific book readings and event timings can be found on our events calendar.
The Museum & Theatre is offering today as PAY WHAT YOU CAN so anyone can participate in the Beautiful Blackbird Festival without financial barriers. Visitors are welcome to reserve their tickets by paying full price, but are also welcome to choose a price that works best for their family at the door upon arrival. Space is limited, so please RSVP with the "Pay What You Can at the Door" options behind the ‘reserve tickets’ button!
We ask that you arrive and leave as close to your time selection as possible and ideally no more than 30 minutes before your visit start time and leave no later than 30 minutes past your end time. All parties must include at least one child and one adult. All visitors must reserve tickets in advance.
If your party is larger than 15 people, you will need to contact our booking coordinator at angela@kitetails.org for availability at least one week in advance of your planned visit.
Online ticket sales end 2 hours after the start of the play session, or when the session sells out.
