Now a National Historic Landmark, the home and museum hosts “Tea with Harriet” each month. At the 1850’s Skolfield-Whittier House guided tours shed light on what upper middle class life was like in the 19th century. Among other attractions and activities, you can spend time at the Bowdoin College Museum of Art and its collection of over 20,000 objects, or attend one of the college’s many cultural events.
