The Abbe Museum Shop
Downtown Bar Harbor and Sieur de Monts Spring, Acadia National Park
The Abbe Museum Shop features authentic 
Native American baskets, carvings, jewelry
and other art forms by Micmac, Maliseet,
Penobscot and Passamaquoddy artists of
Maine and the Maritimes. We also carry works by Maine artists and other Maine-made products.
We make every effort to maintain current
inventory, however it is possible that a
one-of-a-kind item on this site may have
already sold.
Please contact us by e-mail or telephone

Our purchasing priority for the Shop is Wabanaki made products and we strive to represent Native-owned businesses whenever we can. If you are interested in becoming one of our vendors, please contact Astra Haldeman, Manager of Museum Services, at the above email address and set up an appointment.
In particular, we are looking for basketry, birch bark work, wood work and carvings, traditional and contemporary beadwork and jewelry, fabric work/textiles, holistic/health/beauty products, recorded music (CD format), and wall and home décor style art. Please note that items should be crafted of quality materials, i.e. no dyed feathers, plastic, base metals, etc. Books and other publications are subject to review.
Many times during the course of the year we travel to Maine's Native communities and purchase for the shop. Be sure to check back often as we will post information about our next buying trip here.
