Shipbuilding Odysey

In a program exclusive to the Brick Store Museum, visitors are invited to learn about the Kennebunks’ shipbuilding era. The “Shipbuilding Odyssey” begins at the Museum’s Program Center at 4 Dane Street with a brief illustrated look at what life was like in the Kennebunks’ many 19th-century shipyards.  

Guests then embark on a special, narrated trolley excursion stopping at various historic locations associated with shipbuilding along the Kennebunk River in the 1800s, including the sites of the former Bourne & Kingsbury and Titcomb yards, the Landing, and the locks.

The morning concludes back at the Museum, where guests will enjoy clam chowder by Alisson’s Restaurant and refreshments and receive a commemorative souvenir of their historical trip. Advance reservations are required as space is limited. To secure a spot for the tour, call the Museum at 207-985-4802.

Tickets: $35/person and $25 for current Museum members. Please reserve by June 11, 2016.
