Have you ever heard of a flash mob?

About Flash mobs…A Flash Mob is a large group of people who gather at a public location to perform a pre-defined action, typically a brief dance, and disperse rapidly after the event has concluded. Flash Mobs are an internet phenomenon of the 21st century. Although Flash Mobs don’t happen online, they are organized using social media, viral ema...ils, or websites in general. Consequently, the first ‘official’ gathering of this nature was attempted in Manhattan in May 2003, the early days of social media. The phenomenon has since spread across the globe and Flash Mobs are open to anyone to join.

Well we are gathering people to have some fun on Friday at 5:30pm in-front of the Museum! We would love you to join us! Come be a part of the crowd!

PORTLAND, Maine – Tomorrow and Friday between the hours of 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM, Walton Street from Forest Avenue to Canco Road will be closed to all traffic to allow for the excavation of the street below the existing railroad crossing. Traffic will be detoured to Read Street. Commuters may want to seek an alternate route to avoid traffic and delays. Remember to share the road with bicyclists.
