This weekend in Waterboro, ME

An immersive LEGO experience for all ages returns to Portland, ME as BrickUniverse presents a major showcase of creations by celebrated artists from around the country. At the Portland Exposition Building, the fifth annual celebration features a Master Builder Art Gallery with large city scenes, life-size characters, and detailed microscale worlds, along with displays by local enthusiasts and collaborative projects. Interactive themed building zones invite visitors to create bold, clever builds and display them for a chance to be featured. Artist meet and greets provide a closer look at techniques and the creative process. Larger-than-life brick installations offer memorable photo opportunities, and the Brick Marketplace includes retired sets, custom pieces, exclusive merchandise, and other unique finds. Ticket options include a limited VIP pass with early access one hour before general admission and an exclusive VIP BrickUniverse LEGO brick badge, along with smaller crowds and enhanced photo opportunities. General admission is offered in timed sessions with full access to immersive zones, exhibits, and build spaces, and a family 4-pack is available. Timed entry helps ensure a comfortable, crowd-controlled experience, and attendees are asked to arrive during the selected entry window. The event welcomes families, LEGO lovers, artists and creators, kids, teens, adults, STEM students, and anyone who enjoys imagination and creativity.

The main house features three working fireplaces and furnishings suited to the era. Beyond the house, the grounds include a carriage house, a family cemetery, wooded trails, and a barn rebuilt with original timber framing and distinctive reverse board and batten siding. The house and barn are accessible to visitors with mobility needs. Admission is free, and donations are appreciated. Advance sign up is optional and helps organizers plan for attendance.

The Fall Finale brings the SFDGC Summer Session Tag League ’26 to a close, highlighting season-long tag play and semi-weekly mini-tournaments. Tag holders receive a reserved registration spot for the Fall Finale Invitational at the end of the season. A 2026 bag tag is a one-time $20 purchase. Carrying a current tag waives the per-session $2 entry fee, removes additional buy-in costs such as the Ace Pot and CTP, and includes discounted off-season rates. Optional buy-ins are available for divisions, AP, and CTPs, and both guests and non-members are welcome. Tags are offered throughout the season, can be wagered whenever another SFDGC tag is present, and are available onsite by appointment or online, with payment options listed in the Discussion forum. Scores and results are tracked online, and the Salmon Falls Support group page shares season updates, semi-weekly scores, and conversation within the SFDGC community leading up to the finale.

Enjoy a monthly contra barn dance welcoming all ages and experience levels. No prior experience is required. A beginner lesson is offered before the main dance, and caller Christopher Ricciotti leads the dancing with live music from Joy Factor. The festivities take place inside a historic 19th century barn, with concessions available on site. Attendees can arrive early to picnic on the lawn and visit the farm animals. Admission is $15 per person, with free entry for youth under 12. Tickets are available at the door or can be reserved online in advance.
