With Summer coming back around, the project will be back in full swing, thanks in part to the help of a new addition to our team: recent MECA grad Jeff Hoffman. Look for updates here soon about some of our upcoming plans and new pin locations in the coming weeks. Until then, check out Kris’s new fashion line collaboration Beaux & Arrow, and Bryan’s upcoming HillyTown Presents curated events!

We have brand new templates! Please go download one and make some awesome new pins to put in our new pin machine location. Our 25 cent machine is now located at Trinket & Fern, located at 172 Middle St. in Portland, ME. This shop is very new and we’re really excited that they were so eager to have one of our machines in their store full of locally made art. Pottery, painting, fabrics, glass, photography and much more!

Here’s a shot of the inside of their store. If you still don’t know where it is, go to Tommy’s park in the old port and look across the street.
