The history and cultures of Maine's Native American people, the Wabanaki, are showcased through changing exhibitions, special events, collection management, teacher workshops, archaeology field schools, and craft workshops for children and adults. Visitors find dynamic and stimulating exhibitions and activities interspersed with spaces for quiet reflection. In addition to the downtown location, from spring through fall, the Abbe's historic trailside museum at Sieur de Mont's Spring continues to offer visitors a step back in time to the early 20th century presentations of Native American archaeology in Maine.Admissions:The Museum had over 25,000 visits combined at our two locations.
