Festival of Trees

We visit the Saco Museum at each new exhibit. The 2017 Festival of Trees is outstanding, so many beautiful and creatively decorated trees and wreaths. The Museum is very well run and organized. Very enjoyable.

School Visit

Been here a couple different times on school visits. For a little museum they do a great job offering differing exhibits. Their festival of tress during Christmas time is great!

Packed with history!

This place is filled with so much information for its size! Bonus, the big gallery switches out exhibits every 8 months so there is always something new.
