Our New Mission Statement

19th Century Curran Village is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that collects, preserves and utilizes historic artifacts and buildings for the purpose of exhibition, living history, traditional arts programming and hands-on education. The village serves as a classroom to not only raise awareness and appreciation of life in rural Maine and New England during the emerging Industrial Age of the 19th and early 20th centuries but to  empower new generations through sharing the lessons of science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics from that time to meet the challenges of the 21st century . Our goal is to help to nurture future inventors, scientists, artists, mechanics and agriculturists through individual awareness and discovery.
