Summary

The Beaver Island Historical Society identified July 19–25, 2015 as its 35th annual Museum Week. Its daily forum updates document programming at the CMU boathouse, Heritage Park, the Community School, Gregg Fellowship Hall, the Community Center, the Beachcomber, Protar’s Home, Holy Cross Hall, and the Print Shop area.

The updates include schedule changes and day-of or near-day-of notices for historical activities, art and blacksmith demonstrations, Native American stories and pottery, shipwreck research, a capital-campaign House Party, a Protar Home tour, an inland-lakes field trip, and a children’s pet show.
