Found set of flutes near Monument Square, Portland

Hi, I’m Lena Carter. I found a set of flutes in Portland, Maine around 2:40 PM this Sunday, tucked beside Monument Square. They’re in a black hard case with two separate mouthpieces and a little repair kit in the pocket. The initials on the case suggest a student or local musician is missing them. They’re in good shape, and it felt right to keep them safe until the owner shows up. I’d love to see them back with the person who played them.

LOST Sculptures in Portland, Maine

I lost my sculptures on Friday around 7:30 PM in downtown Portland, Maine. I had been moving two sculptures in a weathered wooden crate along Congress Street when a gust swept the crate off the handcart and into the street near the Portland Museum of Art. One piece is copper, about 28 inches tall; the other is a pale stone abstract. I retraced my steps along Congress Street and the Western Prom, but they’re nowhere to be found. They’re years of work and a big part of my life, and I’m hoping a neighbor or passerby might have picked them up and seen this post.

Found toy train in Portland, ME

Hi, I’m Liam Hayes. I found a small tin toy train near the Old Port in Portland around 3:15 p.m. last Saturday while I was cleaning up after a quick stroll along Exchange Street. The train is red with a black chimney and a slightly worn finish, as if it has seen years of play. It brought back memories of rainy days and old toy boxes, and I could tell someone might be missing it. If this toy belongs to you or a kid you know who loves trains, I hope you see this and can claim it through the site.

Lost sheet music, Portland, Maine

I'm missing my sheet music for a violin recital, taken from my messenger bag around 7:30 p.m. yesterday near Congress Street in Portland. It's a well-worn stack of pages with pencil notes and a coffee ring on the corner. I've practiced these pieces for months, and the recital is in two weeks; I'm anxious something irreplaceable is gone. If you found it, I'd be grateful for any help returning it to its owner.

Found sports equipment in Maine

I found this Equipment for Various Sports on the bleachers outside the Portland Community Center around 7:45 p.m. last Tuesday. The gear was tucked in a navy duffel, with shin guards peeking out and a bright orange whistle clipped to the zipper. I can imagine the owner rushing out after practice, realizing their bag had vanished, and that sinking feeling in the chest. I brought the gear to the center’s lost-and-found desk and left a note in case the owner stops by. If this sounds like yours, it’s safe here, and I hope it helps you get back to playing soon.
