Dear Frontier Friends and Family ~

Change is afoot. Eighteen years ago I crossed the Frank J. Wood Bridge, sauntered into Fort Andross, and started on a journey called Frontier. That journey was inspired by my work leading cultural expeditions around the world. During those expeditions, I witnessed the profound impact storytelling has on communities. Stories are the lifeblood of a people—they expose the essence of a culture and provide for a shared identity. In all cultures, stories are shared in the “meeting spaces”. These spaces become touchstones for communities, and serve as vital conduits for exchanging thoughts and ideas.

Frontier has ultimately been a journey about building a community space. It is our sincere hope that after nearly two decades we’ve been able to demonstrate a care for and commitment to creating such a space, and with some blood, sweat, and tears, a dilapidated mill space can become a thriving community hub. And just as communities are always evolving, so too has this space. As we look ahead toward the next decade, it is time to hand over this community space to its next steward. Starting in October 2022, Frontier will be passing that torch, in its entirety, to Nomad.

I’m immensely thankful for the hundreds of individuals who helped build this space and the many hundreds of thousands who made it a destination over the years. Like any grand adventure we’ve traveled up, down, and sideways, but I can assure you we never strayed from our mission and we always sought to expand our impact. Speaking for the many who helped make Frontier a home for you over the years… we hope you were nourished, inspired, and cared for.

Nomad’s proven success, local focus, and commitment to community will enable them to pick up where we left off in the restaurant. They will also be reviving the event venue to host private events and community gatherings again. Regularly scheduled programming, such as film, music, and special events, will be on pause while Nomad gets established and settles into our community.

The next chapter in the Frontier story is uncharted, but our newsletter will remain active to keep you informed. In the meantime, some of our core staff and I will be assisting Nomad with this transition, so we encourage you to sign up for Nomad’s newsletter at https://nomadmaine.com/newsletter to get informed of all their future offerings. Please stay tuned.

Onward…Gil

Greetings Frontier Friends and Family ~

Frontier has always been an ever-evolving adventure—much like our own unique life journeys. There are times when we grow in profound ways and other times when we retreat in order to preserve and protect. We ebb and flow, and over time we change. Sometimes circumstances allow us to control change and other times we can only react.

The pandemic was a tipping point for change at Frontier. After eighteen years of near constant expansion, the pandemic forced us into a protracted period of preservation. This past two-year, mazelike journey fundamentally challenged our ability to gather people together around food, film, music, and art. Simply put, our business model needed to change. And so we evolve, once again…

We’re excited to announce a new restaurant will be opening later this summer! We’ve passed the food/beverage torch (along with our kitchen and dining room) to a new owner and operator, Nomad Pizza. Nomad specializes in wood-fired pizza and has been operating successfully for over 15 years in/around Princeton, NJ.

Nomad owner, Tom Grim, who now lives in Maine to be closer to his children and grandchildren, has long wanted to bring his wood-fired pizza north. He and Nomad partner, Matt Shankle, spent last summer traveling throughout Maine serving their wood-fired pizza from a mobile pizza truck, in search of a new home. As a long time Frontier customer, Tom always thought our space would be the perfect location for their wood-fired pizza. After a year of discussions, we agreed.

Our fundamental goal in finding a new owner/operator for the food service was to identify someone who shares our commitment to the community, supports local farmers, and would keep this special space accessible to the public. We found all this and more with Nomad. In addition to Nomad’s commitment to local/organic whenever possible, Tom’s son, Aaron, operates Cosmic Goat Farm and Creamery where he produces organic goat cheese & yogurt, and Tom’s son, Nicholas, operates Nomad Pasta, a producer of organic small batch pasta. We’re confident that Nomad will make a good steward, and we’re excited by the opportunities ahead.

Thank you for your patience while we’ve been working diligently during these last couple years to structure a sustainable way forward. Stay tuned for updates over the coming months, as we introduce you to Nomad. In the meantime, Frontier café, cinema, and event space remain open Weds-Sat 12-8 pm.

With Gratitude,
Gil and the Frontier Team

Ticket includes educational vermouth tastings from near and far, a full-size cocktail made with your favorite choice, and charcuterie to nosh along with.

•••

Go into virtually any bar, order a Negroni, Martini, or Manhattan, and you can expect the bartender to naturally start gathering the ingredients. You might even know to customize the order with a combination of adjectives like up, dry, or dirty. The bartender garnishes your drink, you take a sip, and *chef’s kiss. You continue on with your life, ordering Negronis at bars, never knowing that beneath it all, a selfless aperitif is tying your entire drink together. Never in the limelight, it gives your drink flavor and asks nothing in return. Well, not anymore! We are here to spread the gospel that is Vermouth!

Frontier is teaming up with Sopo Wine Co. and 93 Main to offer an instructional Vermouth tasting for those curious in learning more about the herbaceous aperitif. Sample vermouths ranging in origin from Spain to just down the road in South Portland! Learn about the history of Vermouth, the range of base ingredients, various aromatics, and best practices for enjoying the Italian born infusion. Pick your favorite of the samplings for a custom cocktail to close the tasting, and then, Cheers!

The movie, selected as the Ukrainian entry in the foreign-language category at the Academy Awards in 2015, has direct parallels with what’s going on currently as the story revolves around the friendship between an American boy and a blind minstrel in 1930s Ukraine when millions in the region were being starved to death by Stalin’s Soviet Union.

New art in the cafe gallery featuring our mill-mate Cheryl Tyler of TerraFlora.

Cheryl Tyler is passionate about plants and design. Living in Maine, where the winters are long and the days are short, TerraFlora was founded as a solution to the physical and emotional fatigue that comes from being tucked in tight buildings that don’t breath, dry heat and the deprivation of greenery. Plants and moss invigorate a room as well as those who inhabit it, they transpire moisture to the air while removing toxins and unpleasant smells. What’s more, the ambient light and vibrant foliage literally bring life to any space.

Cheryl’s work comes to our space at the perfect time to usher in the warm weather and sunshine.

NOW SHOWING: ASCENSION

ASCENSION is an impressionistic portrait of China’s industrial supply chain that reveals the country’s growing class divide through staggering observations of labor, consumerism and wealth.

To outsiders, China presents somewhat of a paradox: a nominally communist nation that exemplifies the enormous wealth creation of a hyper-capitalist nation. In recent years, President Xi Jinping has popularized the term “Chinese Dream”—an explicit nod to the path of personal upward mobility that made the United States the envy of the twentieth century. While it is an open-ended phrase, the CCP has used it to signify China’s return as a world superpower through military and economic strength. The dream is collective, and it is determined by the Party, from the top down. But what does the dream look like on an individual level, from the bottom up? This is the gaze of ASCENSION.

ASCENSION portrays capitalism in China across the levels of its operation, from the crudest mine to the most rarefied forms of leisure. Accordingly, the film is structured in three parts, ascending through the levels of the capitalist structure: workers running factory production, the middle class training for and selling to aspirational consumers, and the elites reveling in a new level of hedonistic enjoyment. The film juxtaposes these very different spaces to show a hidden but intrinsic connectedness. In traveling up the rungs of China’s social ladder, we see how each level supports and makes possible the next;simultaneously we see how true upward mobility between its levels largely remains an elusive fantasy. Though the levels exist side by side, ascension isa journey across generations, benefiting a few individuals on the rise at the expense of many.

There’s a small amount of tickets left for each of our last two showings, today at 2pm and 6pm. Next week we’re on to the Live Action Shorts. Don’t say we didn’t warn you! Tickets (if there are any left) at https://www.explorefrontier.com/event/2022-oscar-nominated-shorts-documentary/

Congratulations to Two Distant Strangers, winner of the Live Action Shorts category. You can still watch the winners and all the nominees for each category for a little longer in our Virtual Cinema. In “Two Distant Strangers,” cartoonist Carter James’ repeated attempts to get home to his dog are thwarted by a recurring deadly encounter that forces him to re-live the same awful day over and over again. https://www.explorefrontier.com/event/2021-oscar-nominated-shorts/
