Museum L-A will display Mary and Richard LaFontaine’s
500-unit holiday village through the month of December with an opening
reception, Merrymaking at the Mill, from 4 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, December
4, in the museum’s gallery. A $5 per person donation is suggested.
“This is truly a unique event, as in prior years the village was seen
only by family and friends. What a treat for all Museum L-A visitors
to have the opportunity to enjoy this spectacular holiday display,”
said Camden Martin, guest services coordinator.

Light refreshments, make your own holiday greeting cards and the
ambiance of the season will add to the festive spirit.

Additionally, visitors can take advantage of the museum’s unique gift
shop, so bring your shopping list. This year, the museum will be
offering a one-of-a-kind holiday ornament for sale.

These are also the final days of the “Footwear: From Function to
Fashion” shoe exhibit that has been so well received and was recently
featured on a segment of News Center Maine’s 207 show.
