Become a 2018-2019 Event Sponsor

 

Wayfinder Schools will host two events during the 2018-2019 school year: Our annual author event will be held April 11, 2019 at Hannaford Hall in Portland, and will feature New York Times best-selling author Amor Towles in conversation with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Russo. Towles is the author of A Gentleman in Moscow and Rules of Civility. Russo is the author of more than a dozen books, including Nobody’s Fool, Empire Falls, Trajectory and The Destiny Thief. Sponsorship of this event includes tickets to the conversation as well as a catered reception with the authors.

We also have a new event this year, Wine Our Way, a fall wine tasting and vineyard tour to be held October 13, 2018 at Willows Awake Winery & Vineyard in Leeds, ME. This event will feature a presentation by Drew Horton, a nationally recognized enologist. Guests will have the opportunity to taste different varietals while helping to determine Maine wine preferences. The event will include the guest speaker presentation, tour of the vineyard, tasting, and hors d’oeuvres.

All pledges and payments made before September 10, 2018, will ensure your logo is used in printed promotional materials for both events.
