Join passivhausMAINE and partners for the inaugural Building Science Week, a celebration of high-performance design, smart construction practices and the people shaping Maine’s built environment. Taking place the first full week of November, this event features hands-on workshops, expert-led programs, community site walks, exhibits and networking, all centered around building science education. Whether you're a homeowner, builder, designer or just curious about how buildings can work better for people and the planet, there’s something here for you.
