Event Planning for Nonprofits Workshop

LEARN@UMC “Event Planning for Nonprofits” Workshop

CAMDEN – March 24, 2025—United Midcoast Charities (UMC) would like to announce its next LEARN@UMC workshop, “Event Planning for Nonprofits”, which will be held on Wednesday, April 9, from 9 am to 10:30 am at the UMC office in Camden. UMC is partnering with Kristen Winters, former owner and creative director of Beehive Creative. Kristen brings over 13 years of experience in designing meaningful and timeless events in Maine. Known for her deep love of coastal beauty and her ability to create elegant celebrations, Kristen collaborated with talented teams to bring her clients' visions to life. Her expertise has been featured in various print and online publications, showcasing her success in the wedding industry.

In addition to her professional achievements, Kristen has generously shared her event planning expertise with local nonprofits through her involvement in board affiliations and community initiatives. In 2023, she made the bittersweet decision to step away from wedding planning to focus on her family and spend more summers with her daughter. Today, Kristen continues her work as a dedicated clinician, supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families through her roles in school-based settings and private practice. She is also an active member of the Sundog Outdoor Leadership Initiative board.

Registration is now open. This workshop is free for current UMC grantee organizations, and open to area nonprofits for a $20 fee. Space is limited so RSVP right away. Please call 207-236-2299 or email admin@unitedmidcoastcharities.org to register.
