PARKING (see map, right)
There will be no parking at the property or on Front Street. Tabor Academy has generously provided the use of their parking lots at the Fireman Performing Arts Center/Hoyt Hall and the Fish Athletic Center, both located on Front Street and less than a 10 minute walk (0.4 miles) from the event. Parking is also available at Sippican School (12 minute walk/0.6 miles), and you may find parking on several side streets. Marion residents can park at Island Wharf, but a 2023 residential sticker is required to use this lot. This lot is also used for harbor parking and the bandstand (with Friday evening concerts). We have limited spaces available for those with mobility challenges who may need to park close to the property. Please speak to a MAC representative upon arrival for details.

SILENT AUCTION/RAFFLE (ending at 8:00pm)
We have some fantastic items in our silent auction and raffle! Your ticket to the party has a ticket number which will serve as your bidder number and your raffle ticket identification number. We encourage you to bring cash for raffle tickets, but we can take credit card payments as needed. Raffle tickets must be purchased at time of use with cash, card, or check. The silent auction and raffle will end promptly at 8:00pm. Our volunteers will need some time to collect the bid sheets and compile our list of winners! Check out for winners will begin at 8:15pm. If you decide to leave early before the party ends but participated in auction bidding, please see a MAC representative to place your card on file. We'll contact you if you've won!
