Matt Wheeler will present an overview of the museum’s photo collections, focusing on prominent holdings and more recent acquisitions. PMM is committed to digitizing its collections and publishing the images, along with available information, online for free public access.

As with other collections, PMM’s photographs–numbering over 300,000–originated in the Penobscot Bay region, but their geographic scope is wide-ranging, since some of our photographers travelled the country and the world. The talk will reveal some of their stories, and of course be accompanied by a generous heap of engaging images.
