The second annual Resurgam Music & Arts Festival is coming to Portland’s Ocean Gateway  and surrounding areas on Sunday, June 11th.  The free Festival runs from 11:00 am – 6:00 pm.  It will feature over 50 performers on five stages to showcase Portland’s creativity and youth.  The Festival is hosted by the Maine Academy of Modern Music.

Last year the first Festival was held at Thompson’s Point.  It attracted over 5,000 to the Festival.  It is expected to be an expanded event this year with more participating.

“Music and the creative arts have fueled what OTTO does since we first opened our doors in Portland’s Arts District in 2009.  We’ve seen first-hand how the arts can enrich lives, foster creative collaboration, and build community.  We are proud to be the headline sponsor of Resurgam 2023 and to be part of the growing annual music and arts festival.  It’s going to be a great festival.”  Eric Shepherd, Director of Marketing and Communications at OTTO.
