The Fifth Maine Museum will be opening for its 2024 season!
Be sure to check out our new exhibit on the second floor of the museum, entitled “Defending the Coast: Warfare in Casco Bay.” It’s a deep dive into the role that the Peaks Island and other Casco Bay islands have played in defending Portland Harbor.
Our second concert in the Peaks Island House Concert Series!
