The mission of United Maine Craftsmen is to promote Maine artists by providing opportunities for marketing, education and collaboration.
To all of our fellow members past and present, as well as our Customers:
It is with great sadness that we announce that United Maine Craftsmen will dissolve at the end of 2024. We have certainly had a great 54 years of serving our members and customers. Membership to our organization started to see a decline after Covid and the abundance of Craft Shows across the state, the change of venues, the internet, as well as members retiring also played a crucial part.
We are always extremely grateful to our members who have supported us over the years AND to our Customers who came to our Craft Shows and supported our members. Most of our Members do belong to other organizations and will still be selling their products at other areas as well as their websites.
Again, we are extremely grateful to each and every one of you who have made United Maine Craftsmen possible for the past 54 years.
Respectfully,
Rachel A. Soucy
President, UMC
