Mission Bowl

The arts are recognized for their unique ability to build community through creative human expression. As a year-round cultural center in rural Maine, Snow Pond expands on this concept by uplifting the entire Belgrade Lakes region through an inclusive economic strategy centered on creative placemaking. With our cultural, recreational, and educational assets, Snow Pond is simultaneously a tourist destination and pillar of the region’s quality of life that attracts and retains talent.

  • Tourism – dozens of concerts, festivals, and entertainment programs draw tens of thousands of patrons locally, across the U.S., and internationally.

  • Creative Placemaking – hiking trails, pond hockey, concerts, extracurricular arts education, and farm-to-table dining contribute to a vibrant community that we continue to design through a community-based process intended to deliver greater economic impact through the arts.

  • Talent Attraction & Retention – connecting Maine Arts Academy students with local institutions and offering exceptional quality of life amenities create a two-pronged approach to growing the young professionals and families living in the Belgrade Lakes region.
