The Lincoln Home is hosting its fourth annual Lobster and More! event Saturday, Aug. 17, at 4 p.m. Dine on delicious Maine lobsters, mouth-watering barbecue chicken, and Maine blueberry desserts overlooking the Damariscotta River next to the Lincoln Home. The evening’s festivities include Maine bluegrass band, Sandy River Ramblers, known for their gorgeous three-part harmonies and lively music for dancing. Bring your summer guests to join in the fun and meet some of the great people we have in our community.

Peruse the “Art Under the Tent” while enjoying fresh oysters from the Damariscotta River, delicious hors d'oeuvres, a locally brewed beer or glass of wine. Twenty talented Maine artists will exhibit work in a variety of mediums for sale in the Art Tent. Vote for your favorite artist in the “People’s Choice Awards” and three cash awards will be given to the artists you choose.

The Lincoln Home hosts this special fundraiser to support the Resident Financial Aid Fund and bring the community together for a fun evening. A portion of the art sold, along with all ticket sales, helps support the Financial Assistance Fund at The Lincoln Home for residents who have outlived their financial resources.

Advance tickets are suggested, at $45 per person for lobster or chicken, $50 per person for both lobster and chicken, and children age 9 and under are free. Call to reserve your tickets now at 563-3350. 

The Lincoln Home is grateful to many community sponsors who, through generous donations, in-kind donations and a number of volunteers’ hours make the evening possible. Come out and join us for a lively evening of fun, fine food, lively music and professional artwork all in a beautiful setting, at 22 River Road, Newcastle.
