Art walks and art shows, live music, and dancing kick off the first day of Portland, ME’s first wintertime GLBT and friends festival, FrostbiteME 2008, running Friday March 7 through Sunday March 9, 2008.
On Saturday, wake up and smell the flowers at Portland Flower Show, hop on the bus for some skiing at Sunday River or stay in town for free ice skating and opportunities to sip and sample local cheeses and wine.
Want to get to know some of the other fun folks you saw cutting shapes on the ice earlier? Sashay along to Speedfriending and find new friends to go along to the night’s array of events, including the Equality Maine Dinner, comedy, theatre, the Portland Pirates game or to Styxx Video Club.
