“Our experiences with BAAM and The Gem have been incredible. We've been involved on several fronts over the years, a musical workshop, and original film screening at Telstar School, a concert at Telstar with our full band, light show, and drummer, and a public performance/screening at the Gem venue, with film and music. What stayed with us most was how welcoming, vibrant, and generous the community was - overflowing with care for the arts. The school show was charming. We’ve performed at more than twenty schools across Maine, and that one truly stood out - we’ve never signed more shoes and posters in our lives! Students are still reaching out to us or coming to see us in concert elsewhere. BAAM is a community that truly lives its love for creativity.”
