Pathways Forward, film screening
What do the words ‘life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness’ mean to you? What are our responsibilities as citizens? What hopes do you have for our country and for Maine? Pathways Forward: Mainers Reflect on the 250th features Mainers from across the state sharing their own thoughts on the nation’s founding values and their dreams for the future. Pathways invites us all to look back on where we’ve been and consider where we go from here.
