Cape Porpoise Library

Fires
books
and
weddings
The Cape Porpoise Library is a small community library located in the Cape Porpoise section of the town of Kennebunkport. A small, one room library, it is actually part of an old building called Atlantic Hall.
Atlantic Hall was an old fire house built around 1914 but when the new fire station was completed across the street in 1959, Atlantic Hall became available for local and private events. Lots of parties, weddings, celebrates, concerts and even lobster bakes have been held in the hall.
The library is small but definitely full of charm and history. Not a whole lot of books or materials but the larger and far more useful Kennebunkport town library is located only a short distance away.
The library is just one room but has a lovely ambiance with old and new photos, comfy places to sit and lots of cute and interesting stuff kind of scattered about.
Not a huge or stunning library but one that is definitely unique. This place is an anachronism, a library that reflects how things use to be. You can get a book, use a computer and even have a lobster bake, attend a party, or get married upstairs. Just the way people have done for a long time.
