Maine Coast Fishermen’s Association, a nonprofit dedicated to fostering sustainable fisheries in the Gulf of Maine and supporting Maine’s fishing businesses, has co-hosted panels to discuss the variety of issues facing Maine’s working waterfronts. The next in the series, titled “Hidden Working Waterfronts,” will be from 5:30-7 p.m. Thursday, May 23, at the Maine Oyster Company’s basecamp in Phippsburg. This will be a discussion of the small working waterfronts that often go unnoticed along the coast of Maine, particularly those in Phippsburg and Georgetown, and their significance to the waterfront economy and heritage of this area.
