Death with Dignity Referendum Initiative

February 7, 11:45 to 12:45
Room 138C

Diann Henderson, volunteer for Maine Death with Dignity, will present the citizen initiative to place an assisted dying statute on the 2019 ballot.

The proposed law would allow adult Maine residents, who have had two physicians confirm a terminal diagnosis, to receive prescription medication to end their lives in a peaceful and dignified manner at a time and place of their choosing. The measure includes a lengthy list of safeguards to ensure the patient is acting voluntarily, does not suffer from impaired judgment, and is capable of taking the medication by themselves.


Calling all Artists

Preparations are underway for the 2019 Festival of Art. This year’s Festival will take place May 30th thru June 2nd. Artists age 50 and up are invited to exhibit one piece of original art work in the Festival art show. All art forms are welcome!

Festival registration takes place in March; registration materials will be available nearer the time.

We hope you will join us for this year’s Festival of Art.

Festival Organizing Committee
