If you're getting up to Nantucket this summer or early fall, be sure to make your way over to the Nantucket Shipwreck & LIfesaving Museum.
They're showcasing an exhibit called "Sea Dogs! Great Tails of the Sea," through October 11th.
A traveling exhibit originally developed for Mystic Seaport ® , it tells stories of lifesaving dogs, United States Coast Guard dogs, fishing dogs and lighthouse dogs with a long maritime history of being valued companions on land and at sea.
Paintings, photographs, artifacts, children's books, family activities, and a partial replica of a wrecked ship are part of the exhibition.
The museum is located at 158 Polpis Road, 3.5 miles from Nantucket Town.
