Game Library
With funding from the Maine Community Foundation's Hancock County Fund, the Woodlawn Museum has developed the Historic Game Library, a family oriented hands-on history space. The game library is located in the Museum's former potting shed. In the shed are reproductions of classic children's games, such as hoops, graces, marbles, and jump rope, that families can use, playing and learning together. The Historic Game Library is available everyday during the tour season.
