Cushing's Point Museum

The South Portland Historical Society operates a museum in the historic Cushing's Point House at Bug Light Park. The museum building was moved to this location, on the site of the former WWII Liberty shipyards, in 2009 and celebrated its grand opening in 2010.  

​

Run primarily by a volunteer staff, the museum is open Mondays through Saturdays, from 10am to 4pm, from May through October, as well as on weekends in November and December. The museum offers free admission; donations are appreciated.

 

The historical society's archives and offices are located in the museum building and material in the archives may be accessed by appointment year round.

​

A gift shop is located on site featuring a variety of books, t-shirts and other gift items, as well as the South Portland Historical Society's collectible ornament series. Proceeds support the historical society and its museum.

​

We hope to see you soon!
