Beautiful Blackbird Children’s Book Festival at the Children’s Museum & Theatre of Maine
Saturday, September 28, 2024
The Children's Museum & Theatre of Maine is proud to partner with Indigo Arts Alliance (IAA), along with other statewide partners, for the 5th annual Beautiful Blackbird Children's Book Festival, a celebration of children’s book authors and illustrators of the African Diaspora. On Saturday, September 28th, CMTM will present an in-person schedule of literary and art activities for the whole family, including art-making workshops and read-alouds. This year's festival is also the debut of "Beautiful Blackbird," a stage play for the very young, as a separately ticketed add-on to your visit! The Beautiful Blackbird Children’s Book Festival at CMTM is presented by M&T Bank, with support from Unum. The event is also an official Dollar Day$ event. Admission to the Museum & Theatre will be $1* for every visitor, thanks to generous support from WEX, Inc.

Dollar Day$ admission applies to all visitors. Members are free.
A child must accompany adult visitors. Visitation is expected to be high. Reservations are recommended.
Dollar Day$ admission pricing also applies to theatre shows when available. Separate reservations are required. Visit "Beautiful Blackbird" to book.
Dollar Day$ is part of CMTM’s ongoing work and commitment, through the generosity of funding partners, to eliminate barriers families might face in taking full advantage of the facility. Every child belongs at the Children’s Museum & Theatre of Maine.
