University of Southern Maine

The city of Portland boasts a world class art museum, great restaurants, the beautiful Old Port area and a bustling waterfront. Numerous sandy beaches are near and outlet shopping is just 20 minutes away.  The University of Southern Maine has a new conference center in Portland, Maine.  Located just off the peninsula, the Abromson Center has five, light-filled classrooms, two conference rooms and an impressive 512 seat auditorium. All space has state-of-the-art a.v. technology available. The building is beautiful and was designed specifically with events like conferences and meetings in mind.  With easy access from I-295, there is an 1150 spot parking garage attached to the building making it so convenient for attendees coming from any direction.

Only 12 miles inland, USM's Gorham campus is a more traditional New England style campus with rolling green hills and the village center a short 5 minute walk from campus.  There are numerous residence halls, a large dining commons and classrooms and a spacious field house.
