Support the Maine Lobster Leadership Institute
Attend the Keeper Fund Dinner Series!
The Maine Lobster Leadership Institute recruites 15 to 20 lobstermen and women under the age of 40 to take part in a training program that allows for in depth exploration of various topics and hands on learning. Participants study lobster industry fundamentals – such as science, management and marketing – and take part in on-site learning experiences to reinforce those fundamentals. This program helps participants feel confident as future leaders 
of the lobster fishery.

The events will feature lobster-fishermen and alumni of the Maine Lobster Leadership Institute. Tickets include a complimentary welcome drink and passed appetizer followed by a 3 course meal with drink pairings.
