One of our favorite parts of working with the Joshua L. Chamberlain Museum? Helping bring the stairway to life. ⁠
⁠
As visitors climb to the second floor of this historic home, they travel back in time to the 1820s. The mural shows Brunswick through the decades using incredible photos from Pejepscot History Center's archive, paired with recreated audio of Chamberlain’s own words.⁠
⁠
If you’re near Brunswick this summer, don’t miss it! ⁠

Demo Day at the @ecotarium ! ✨️⁠

We’ve been busy behind the scenes building a new space exhibit for the EcoTarium! Last Friday we packed up our prototypes and headed south to put them to the test. ⁠
⁠
Visitors gave us amazing feedback, and now we’re putting the final touches on everything before it launches in July.⁠ 🚀⁠
⁠
Big thanks to everyone who tested, played, and shared ideas with us. This exhibit is better because of you!⁠
⁠
