Machias Bay Chamber Concerts

History

Machias Bay Chamber Concerts was founded in 1969 by brothers Thomas and Andrew Wolf, who also founded Bay Chamber Concerts in Camden/Rockport. Robert Guptill, a local real estate agent, suggested the idea of a concert series in Machias to the Wolf brothers, and thus the first official season was launched in 1970. Centre Street Church in Machias has served as MBCC's primary performance venue throughout the years, given its excellent acoustics and central location. MBCC continues to serve the community of Washington County by offering high-level performances and promoting leaders in the arts throughout the Machias area.
