Mission
PORTL& is an arts, entertainment, and technology company focused on creating world class immersive arts destinations and events that are eco-friendly, while creating sustainable careers for creators at deserved wages. We do this by capitalizing on the emerging experiential economy and leveraging arts and technology to create one of a kind destinations (art theme parks) for tourists and locals.
There are 3 main pillars to our business model, arts entertainment, community support / education, and merchandise / product creation. PORTL& is solving issues faced in a growing Portland by employing creators to build an economic and culturally valuable venue that will strengthen the creative economy and keep creatives thriving.

We're not alone in thinking that creating an immersive art venue (Art Theme Park) is an excellent idea. Portland, Maine is ready for something on this scale, and we're a doing everything we can to make it a reality. Here are some facts about the venue, and some of our peers/mentors we look to for guidance and inspiration.
the
future
Currently, we're raising funding to bring the reality of immersive arts entertainment and education to Maine. Our goal is 4 million in seed funding and every penny of it, along with our sweat and effort, will be used in service of creators, community and the future. We believe Maine will benefit immensely from a venue that's known throughout the country and the world as a destination for immersive arts; or as we like to put it, an ART THEME PARK.
