We’ve seen lots of friendly faces, and got to meet so many people from around the world. We would like to thank all that took their time to dive into the history of our building, the Great Saint John Fire of 1877, and all of the artifacts. We would also like to thank everyone for their generous donations. A special thanks to th...e individuals who helped out with our two fundraisers as well. We hope you enjoyed the summer & our museum as much as we did. Thank you, Faith, Katelyn, & Tessa (Summer Students)
