In the Kennebunk Room:

In honor of Black History Month, the York Diversity Forum has mounted an exhibit of work by students in the York Schools that commemorate Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The theme of this exhibit is one of his quotes: "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."


In the Exhibit Cases Upstairs:

A new exhibit mounted by Cindi Young-Gomes of the Museums of Old York, brings together the memories of Miss Elizabeth Perkins' extensive travels abroad, covering every continent except Australia. As a member of society Miss Perkins attended the coronation of the last Czar of Russia. As an amateur photographer she captured images of her visit to the ruins of Angkor Thom in Cambodia by elephant. As an adventurer she was pulled up a cliff by basket in order to reach a Greek mountain-top monastery. All that remain-the coronation cup, the faded photograph, the written account-give us a glimpse into the world of Elizabeth Perkins, and how she took the world and made it her own.
