The HOPE Festival is sponsored by the Peace and Justice Center of Eastern Maine

Since 1995, the HOPE Festival (Help Organize Peace Earthwide) has welcomed spring and Earth Day in the Bangor, Maine area. The event offers each year a wide variety of information, education, and entertainment for adults and children. This year there were eighty local non-profit organizations represented with information tables and displays. It's always a fun day for everybody with great music and other entertainment, an extensive children's program, food, special events, and much more.

The HOPE Festival lets us have fun while changing the world -- and we have changed the world. It is one of the big reasons our community is great.
