About Open Door

Open Door is an insight meditation community based in Portland, Maine. We welcome all people of every cultural and religious background, sexual orientation, gender identity, color, age, and physical ability. All practitioner levels are welcome.

​We gather to deepen our Early Buddhist–or Insight (Vipassana)--Meditation practice and support a thriving and inclusive meditation community throughout Maine and beyond. We look forward to welcoming you.

​This community is supported by our team of Teachers including our Guiding Teacher, Chas DiCapua, and the work of the Sangha Steering Circle and Committees.

​We welcome all sponsors and benefactors. If you are interested in sponsoring Open Door, please contact us for more information.
