About This Event

Join us in Hannaford Hall at USM for a live on-stage conversation between METLN journalists and the cast of the Maine Cabin Masters!
Building on our 2026 theme of focusing on Maine storytellers - individuals and groups of people who have defined and shared their own stories about Maine that have found resonance far beyond Maine’s borders - we’ll ask them about what it’s like to run a construction company in Maine (Kennebec Cabin Co) - thoughts on housing in Maine, and what their national popularity says about our state, its’ people, and their stewardship of the way life should be.
ABOUT THE MAINE CABIN MASTERS
The Maine Cabin Masters attempt to save some of the most historic properties in Maine. Chase Morrill, Ashley Morrill, Ryan Eldridge, and Matt Dix, put their construction, restoration, and design skills to the national stage on their show Maine Cabin Masters, which airs on Magnolia Network.
