Mainers and World War I

Angela Goebel-Bain, curator of the Over There and Down Home: Mainers and World War I exhibit which is currently on display at the Maine State Museum, will speak about the photographs and artifacts in the exhibit.

The talk will chronicle the United States' journey from neutral country to a member of the Allied Forces. Her talk will feature stories from specific Maine soldiers as well as civilians working toward an Allied victory.

Those attending the lecture will also have the opportunity to view the WWI collection of the Redington Museum. Ms. Goebel-Bain's talk and the exhibits from both museums commemorate the 100^th anniversary of the end of World War I.
