Join Special Collections & Archives in a collaborative exploration of historic photographs from the Strout Collection. Leon B. Strout (1869-1937) was a photographer local to Brunswick who spent much of his career documenting mid-coastal Maine in the early 20th century. Stop by the Learning Lab to browse a selection of Strout’s photographs of the Pejepscot region. Visitors are encouraged to share their own memories and knowledge of the region’s history in an effort to help identify people, places, and events represented within the collection.
