“The
Abbe's most critical role is that of a good
will ambassador. The museum’s leadership
and staff work very hard to maintain a direct
connection between the Wabanaki people and the
general population interested in learning about
them, in the true context of today, as related
by the aboriginal people themselves. The Abbe
consistently strives to preserve the past, to
educate in the present by utilizing the knowledge
of Wabanaki people, and to maintain a constant
focus for the future.”

former Representative of the Passamaquoddy Tribe
