This year marks the 25th Anniversary of the Maine Green Independent Party, and our annual convention followed the previous evening's 25th Anniversary Dinner Celebration, where it was announced that the Party had commissioned artist Robert Shetterly to paint MGIP co-founder, John Rensenbrink's portrait.
In 25 years, the Party has grown from a group of 18 visionaries, to a state-recognized political party with a membership of nearly 32,000. Chairperson Anna Trevorrow said of the anniversary, "In 25 years this Party has established a solid foundation, so that people like myself (only 3 years old at the Party's start) can continue to grow and build this Green movement."
