Profile

The Maine State Museum offers stories of human interactions with the natural environment over the past 12,000 years. The museum’s educators strive to help visitors of all ages connect their unique experiences to Maine’s rich natural and cultural heritage as embodied by the museum’s collections and exhibits. Drawing from a variety of communication tools and learning strategies the museum educators develop and deliver dynamic programs, foster in-depth dialogues, and promote a spirit of inquiry and critical thinking.

Currently, the museum is offering a variety of free, live, online programming via Zoom while the Museum remains closed for extensive renovations and with hopes of reopening in late 2025/early 2026
