Journey through the Dawnland: Wabanaki homelands scavenger hunt

Fogler Library is happy to participate as a site in the First Annual Wabanaki Homelands Scavenger Hunt! Come in to get a copy of the Scavenger Hunt information booklet, and locate a book by a Wabanaki author in Fogler’s collections to receive your Fogler stamp. The Scavenger Hunt begins June 24th and runs through the summer.

Stamp your travel log at participating destinations throughout what is now called Maine, and learn more about the Wabanaki and their homelands! As you collect stamps and answer questions in your travel log, you can win prizes including stickers, jewelry, and signed books by Wabanaki authors!

Open to Collaborate

Fogler has added an Open to Collaborate icon on its homepage. The icon also appears in several other locations throughout the Fogler website. Fogler is committed to the development of new modes of collaboration, engagement, and partnership with Indigenous peoples and Wabanaki Nations in particular for the care and stewardship of past and future heritage collections. For more information about this notice, please read more at Local Contexts.
