Harvard Club in Maine

A Guided Tour of the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens &

🍺 Crimson DownYeast Tipple Time in Boothbay Harbor! 🍷 

Kick off our lovely Maine summer this year with a private tour of

the beautiful Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, spread over 323 acres in Boothbay, and

greet the Guardians of the Seeds, the giant trolls created by the artist Thomas Dambo

with fellow Harvard alumni in Maine!

Afterwards, we will gather for Happy Hour revelries at

Brady's, on the deck overlooking the harbor, with good brews and food

in Boothbay Harbor, a quintessential Midcoast Maine gem.

Relax, unwind, and catch up with fellow alumni over your favorite tipple.  Don't miss it!
