Museum in the Streets offers a walk-through Ellsworthâs history
ELLSWORTH â Fire, flood and shipbuilding. All play a role in Ellsworthâs history and all are included in the Museum in the Streets, a project that recently debuted on downtown streets and beyond.
âEvery now and then weâd say, wouldnât it be nice to have historic signs? Especially around the river. But we never knew quite how to do it,â said Carolyn Ackerman, who chairs the cityâs Historic Preservation Commission.
Several organizations participated in the planning, fundraising and seeking out local history in words and photographs, including the historical society, library, Downtown Ellsworth Association members, local businesses, the Penobscot Nation, Heart of Ellsworth, Woodlawn and the city on which the project is based. And, hunting down the actual and accurate historical information and finding compelling photos for each panel took time.
