HISTORY
The Bowl in the Pines was built in the 1930s as part of what became the Snow Pond Center for the Arts. The amphitheater underwent a significant renovation supported in part by a $475,000 USDA loan. The renovated venue has expanded its programming to attract larger national touring acts to central Maine.
