Long Term Plans

"In conjunction with the restoration work, the Friends have devoted their energies to wide-ranging consultation about the future use of the building compatible with its historic role as a social, cultural, economic resource for Washington County.  

 

From such discussions, a vision emerged for Liberty Hall as a Maker-Space-- a multi-use space for active, collaborative learning across different generations, constituencies and skill-sets. Key local partners – the Gates House Museum, Porter Memorial Library, University of Maine at Machias, Downeast Institute, Greenhorns, Machias Bay Chamber of Commerce – have shared in developing the plans.  

 

We will be expanding this partnership network to provide the foundation for future fundraising.
