Journal Tribune features UNE students' seafaring exhibit at Saco Museum

The Journal Tribune on May 5, 2011 published a story on a seafaring exhibit opening on May 6th at the Saco Museum that was created by a class of UNE students. 

The exhibit, titled 'Voyages and the Great Age of Sail,' is a culmination of a history class, which is team taught by UNE History Professor Elizabeth De Wolfe and alumna Camille Smalley '08, program and education manager for the Saco Museum.

UNE junior Jen Cox, a history and education major, said she enjoyed the class and the project. She said the project at first was “kind of daunting” and she learned a lot about putting together an exhibit. “It’s a nice way to conclude the year." The opening reception is Friday, May 6th at 5:30 p.m.
