Celebrate the ties children in Maine have with countries around the world! Each month, our We Are Maine program highlights a country featured in our We Are Maine exhibit. Come join us as we explore the many festivals and traditions held throughout the world, watch a video and meet children just like you, and share your own story in our "What's Your Story?" booth. Specific activities vary and may include craft-making, story-telling, recipe sharing and/or dance/movement!

On Saturday, she and others will talk about city farming, and she'll sign copies of her book. Call 774-1044. 1 to 3 p.m. Rabelais, 86 Middle St., Portland. Free
