Join Historic New England Wednesday, July 26 at 10:30 a.m. for a morning of reading books and activities for summer reading program, “Build a Better World,” with a special emphasis on buildings and architecture. Meet at the Children’s Room of Wiscasset Public Library to receive your name tag/ticket and walk to Castle Tucker to learn about a part of New England’s history.

Lawn games and house tours will take place on the grand lawn from noon to 2 p.m. Enjoy everyday life as if in Victorian times. Families are invited to pack a picnic lunch and enjoy a summer day much like Mollie and Richard Tucker and their five children did at the turn of the 20th century.
