A Few of Our Present Exhibits
The Militia Coat that dates before 1799, has become known to us as our baby at the Garden of the Gulf Museum. See it in person to appreciate the excellent condition it's in, and hear the story of the man who wore it. It's proudly displayed in our Military Exhibit.
A wee bit of history about the boats that have taken passengers to and from the island. Have you ever heard of Ice Boats?
Our one room school house exhibit has been a favorite for years at the Museum. It is enjoyed by everyone who sees it. Children love sitting at the desks and pretending they're in class.
When the building was built in 1888 there was an apartment on the third floor. After fifty plus years of being used as a storage room for our many artefacts we have now turned it back into what looks like an apartment. Two rooms filled with amazing artifacts gives you a real sense of how life would have been living there. One of our treasured donations is a five piece bedroom set that was a wedding gift in 1881. The View of the Montague River is amazing from those top windows.
