Maine is made up of many tight-knit communities – from rural areas to dense city neighborhoods. And it’s usually not a line on a map that shows us how to find these communities, or how to understand what holds them together. We’ll look at the connections that make strangers neighbors and friends, as well as people who challenge us to decide how we want to show up in our own lives. First, we’ll get to know a famous figure who drew a city together while remaining completely anonymous. Then, we’ll ask what being a good opponent at chess can teach us about building strong, long-lasting relationships.
