A Closer Look: Built Environment at Maine MILL

Bring your voice to a conversation about the built environment of Lewiston and Auburn facilitated by Joe Hall, Associate Professor of History at Bates College. Focusing on the industrial architecture of the Bates Mill and nearby downtown of Lewiston, we’ll delve into what meanings we can read in the architecture and design of this industrial and urban space of the 1800s and 1900s. We'll also consider what those designs might have meant for people living in our area. Participants will be encouraged to share their personal insight as we explore these themes and learn from each other’s perspectives.
