SUMMARY:Belongings: Calling Lynn Home Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Lynn has been shaped over thousands of years by the people who have called this place home. \nWhile Lynn is well-known as a center of industry in the nineteenth century\, there are many lesser-known stories about the people and communities that have formed this city. Today\, Lynn is the largest city in Essex County with over 100\,000 residents\, all with their own experiences\, struggles\, and joys. From indigenous history to modern immigration\, this exhibition explores dynamic periods in Lynn’s past and present\, creating a fuller picture of this vibrant place and its residents. \nOver the course of a year\, museum staff invited the Lynn community to contribute stories and artifacts to build this exhibition with us\, resulting in exciting new relationships\, collaborations\, and partnerships. There are many more stories that have yet to be told\, and this space will change to include more over time. \nWhether you were born and raised in Lynn or this is your first time visiting\, you belong here\, too. What’s your Lynn story? \nThis exhibit is permanent and is located in our second-floor galleries.

SUMMARY:Knowing Nature: Stories of the Boreal Forest Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Home to 3.7 million people\, 85 species of animals\, 32\,000 species of insects and 2 billion migratory birds\, the boreal forest spans nearly the entire Northern Hemisphere\, just below the Arctic Circle\, and makes up one of the world’s last remaining stretches of true wilderness. \nDiscover the biodiversity and global importance of our northernmost forests through first-person stories\, commissioned objects\, interactive experiences and exquisite photography and videography. \nThe boreal forest is critical to the health of our entire planet.

SUMMARY:East India Marine Hall Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Reflect upon the global perspective that has made Salem such a distinctive city as we mark the 200th anniversary of East India Marine Hall. \nExplore several hundred fascinating objects inside the historic hall\, representing a sampling of the many collections that were displayed in the museum during its earliest years.

These captivating stories and works that reflect local and global history\, as well as the impact of maritime trade\, recenter East India Marine Hall as the heart of the museum. From its inception\, this space and the objects in it have elicited empathy\, curiosity and wonder and transported visitors to places around the world. \nThis project has been made possible in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities: Democracy demands wisdom. Major support is provided by Mr. Ulf B. Heide\, Tim and Joanie Ingraham\, Alex Ingraham\, and Sam Ingraham. Generous support has been provided by Haven Trust\, Mr. and Mrs. James B. Hawkes\, Mr. and Mrs. Howard B. Hodgson Jr.\, Angus and Leslie Littlejohn\, Chip and Susan Robie\, Mr. and Mrs. Stuart W. Pratt\, Katie Huddleson and Alan Kraning\, Edward A. Studzinski and Anne G. Studzinski\, the Salem Marine Society\, and Henry Birdseye Weil and Ann Uppington. Additional support has been provided by The Lee and Juliet Folger Fund\, Jonathan B. Loring\, Walter C. Meibaum III\, Jean Verbridge\, and Connie and Stan Grayson. \nAny views\, findings\, conclusions\, or recommendations expressed in this project\, do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities. \nFollow along on social media using #EIMH200

DESCRIPTION:Salem’s connections to the Declaration of Independence center around Ezekiel Russell\, a local printer who played a key role in publishing and disseminating the Declaration in 1776. \nThis exhibition coincides with the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution as well as the 400th anniversary of the European settlement of Salem. Works on view in the intimate James Duncan Phillips Trust Gallery include two of the earliest broadside editions of the Declaration of Independence alongside Revolutionary-era manuscripts\, newspapers\, pamphlets and broadsides that showcase the nation’s founding values of democracy: freedom\, liberty and equality. \nFollow along on social media using #PressingImportance
