The doors of Liberty Hall opened again – we enjoyed a wonderful second Open House!

Liberty Hall is part of a network of community halls across Maine. The effort to preserve and repurpose these historic buildings is rapidly gaining momentum. It is driven by a commitment to making public spaces available again, offering places for people to meet throughout the year and providing facilities that can bring different generations and constituencies together.

For the first time in 12 years, the doors of Liberty Hall were open!

As the Friends of Liberty Hall look forward to completing Phase 4 of the restoration project, we need your input. Please let us know your ideas and suggestions for the building. How can we make it yours?

During March, under the supervision of Jeremy Whitehouse, RJ and Parker spent a week in freezing temperatures, working to demolish Liberty Hall’s old outhouse and repairing all the rear façade clapboards. At this time, they also scraped, primed and prepared the back of the building for spring painting. In May, RJ and Parker returned to Machiasport to install restored window trim and begin the process of painting. The trim and clapboards on the rear façade will match the historic colors used elsewhere on the building’s exterior. They are Benjamin Moore’s Cocoa Brown and Straw.
