UMF Public Forum: Sharing Research, Insights and Creative Works with the Farmington Community
Wednesdays at 7:00pm, Emery Performance Space
Free and Open to the Public

The University of Maine at Farmington invites the public to a series of UMF Public Forum events on the UMF campus during the spring 2024 semester. These thematic panel discussions explore creative and academic topics while engaging perspectives from UMF faculty, students and members of the Farmington community.

“We are excited to invite community members to these unique and thought provoking presentations. Maine’s public universities provide a valuable window into the world around us. The mix of faculty, students, and local artists, educators and activists contribute to our Public Forum and capture the richness of the UMF and greater Farmington community,” said Joseph McDonnell, UMF president.

The UMF Public Forum is a University event series sponsored by the Office of the President. Each lecture will be followed by a discussion and a reception with light refreshments.
