Maine Arts Camp Location and Facilities
View Accommodations
Maine Arts Camp is the only camp located on the campus of Unity College, one of the top environmental schools in the country.
Unity College is located between Waterville, Maine and the beautiful seaport town of Belfast. It's just 14 miles from I-95,
one and a half hours from Portland, three and a half hours from Boston, six hours from western Vermont, and an easy day's
drive from New York City.
The college's green campus, with gardens, hiking & biking trails, locally grown food, a fire pit for campfires, as well
as access to Unity Pond for kayaking & canoeing, is a perfect setting for our camp. There are extensive arts facilities
including studios for drawing and painting, printmaking, metals and sculpture; as well as a modern pottery studio with eight
wheels and a kiln. For performing arts, the college owns the local Unity
Centre for the Performing Arts, a full service performance and event center in the town of Unity.
Campers live in modern comfortable dorms and are served fresh and healthy food by the Unity College food service in a quaint
dining hall. Being in rural Maine, surrounded by fields and woodlands, campers get to experience the outdoors, while still
able to have some creature comforts by living in a college dorm.
Airport pick-up and drop-off is provided from The
Portland Jetport, or Bangor International Airport on the
first and last day of each session. There is non-stop air service to Portland from Atlanta, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago,
Cincinnati, Detroit, Minneapolis, New York - Laguardia & JFK, Newark, Philadelphia, Washington-Dulles, and Washington -
National. There are many non-stop options to Bangor as well.
