Join me Feb. 2 from 12-1 for “On the road to Maine’s museums,” a talk & book signing at the York Public Library in York and at Maine Festival of the Book in Portland on March 31.
Thanks Maine Magazine for this book review in the September 2011 issue:
In her thorough, affectionate, and engaging exploration of Maine’s obscure and popular museums, Janet Mendelsohn provides an excellent guide to navigating Maine’s wealth of history and art. The book eloquently reminds us of Maine’s dedication to its art, culture, and history, and the importance of looking back as we continue to move forward.
I love writing about more than museums, of course. Some recent stories:
Maine Boats, Homes & Harbors - on the environmentally inspired College of the Atlantic
Wellesley Weston Magazine - on cameraderie and The Art of Needlepointing
