Wabanaki Alliance
Collaboration Weekend
Thursday 11/12- Saturday 11/14:
Please join us with the @wabanaki.alliance to celebrate Indigenous Heritage month with delicious family-friendly food, learning, and solidarity. It will be three days of Wabanaki-inspired Goodfire specials by Goodfire’s Head Chef Ben Christie in collaboration with award-winning Penobscot chef Joe Robbins. Goodfire will be donating 20% of the proceeds from the special menu directly to the Wabanaki Alliance.
Thursday hours: 11am to 8pm
Friday hours: 11am to 9pm
Saturday hours: 11am to 9pm
No reservations, no tickets needed. This is a first-come, first-served event.
We have an outdoor patio you’re welcome to use, weather permitting. We don’t have heaters outdoors, FYI.
Sunday 11/15: Screening of We Are The Warriors at 6pm
Goodfire will be closing at 5PM on Sunday to prepare the space.
Guests should arrive at 5:45PM for the 6PM showing.
Film run time: 90 minutes.
A 30-minute panel discussion will follow the screening.
We will serve the remaining special dishes until we sell out, but we expect to return to our standard menu by Sunday afternoon.
We will be serving drinks and only snacks during the film (peanuts, pretzels, pimento cheese, chips with salsa).
This is also a first-come, first-served event. Our capacity is around 45 people for the screening.
“Wabanaki Nations in our homelands now called Maine are thankful for the stewardship and cultural values our people have practiced and honored in these lands and waters for over 12,000 years. We are a vibrant and resilient part of the community of Maine that we all call home today. We come together around sacred food created in a fresh way to show the power and presence of Wabanaki people in the Dawnland. We are so much more than any stereotype or false image forced upon us. We are dynamic contributors, happy to share our generative creativity with all of our allies, neighbors, and friends.”
—Maulian Bryant, Wabanaki Alliance Executive Director
