The public is invited to the family-friendly opening celebration, with demonstrations of hand skills and colonial trades. Admission is free. Forgotten Frontier: Untold Stories of the Piscataqua is a groundbreaking exhibit that tells interwoven stories of eight diverse characters who forged lives in the Piscataqua region in the 1600s, set against a backdrop of shifting alliances and frequent skirmishes with the native Wabanaki people and their French allies. Based on meticulous archaeological research and creative exhibit design, Forgotten Frontier includes nearly 200 objects and artifacts, some on display for the first time.
