BAR HARBOR — The Bar Harbor Historical Society is excited to continue our second annual program, Evening at the Museum, offering special evening hours once a month from May through October. From 4:00 to 6:00 p.m., visitors are invited to explore the museum free admission, making the museum accessible to everyone.
Unlike typical daytime visits, Evening at the Museum will feature rotating days of the week each month to better accommodate the diverse schedules of our community members. Upcoming dates are:
· Monday, August 10, 4 to 6 p.m., with featured Tiny Gallery Artist Sara J Carey
· Thursday, September 10, 4 to 6 p.m., with featured Tiny Gallery Artist Deborah Page
· Saturday, October 10, 4 to 6 p.m. This is a combined Birthday Party for Friends of Acadia’s 40th anniversary and Bar Harbor Historical Society 80th anniversary
During each evening event, the entire museum will be open to the public. In addition, member-only guided tours will be offered as a special benefit for both new and existing Historical Society members. Pre-register at our website to save your spot!
