An Evening with Ken Burns

Join us for a special night with the legendary documentary filmmaker whose work has redefined how America sees its own history. In this rare appearance, Ken Burns will reflect on a lifetime of storytelling, share behind-the-scenes insights from his most celebrated films—including his latest, The American Revolution and offer personal perspectives on the moments that have shaped our nation. This is a singular opportunity to experience one of the most influential voices in film—up close and in conversation with Rob Caldwell from News Center Maine.
