BELFAST — A Resistance Faire will be held Saturday, May 10, 2025, from 1 - 5 p.m., at UUCB Belfast, 37 Miller Street, Belfast, ME 04915.

According to a news release by Wellkeepers and the AIC Resistance Faire Working Group, this will be a free, joyous event that allows Midcoast community members to come together, learn about and share ways to advance justice in the communities, plug into existing work, enjoy local food and music, and join spaces for emergent change-making in real time.

Approximately 15 local groups will host tables in the UUCB sanctuary, where visitors can learn about their work and sign up to volunteer. There will also be 12 workshops on such topics as deescalation, street medicine, alternative economies, mindfulness, popular education, transformative art-making, and more. A program will be posted on the Wellkeepers page: wellkeepers.bsky.social 

Light refreshments will be available. Masks and faire-themed costumes are welcome. 

If you have questions or are interested in volunteering to support the event, email Wellkeepers at wellkeepers@proton.me 

Hosted by Wellkeepers, Alliance of Intervening Citizens, Peace and Justice Waldo County, Audacity CAT, Indivisible Waldo County, and other groups.
