Owner description:
Relive the Kennedy era in this dynamic combination museum and library, where your visit starts with a short film and then leaves you on your own to explore a series of fascinating exhibits, including the Kennedy-Nixon debate, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the space program, 1960s campaign paraphernalia and displays about Jacqueline and other Kennedy family members. The striking, I.M. Pei-designed building overlooks the water and the Boston skyline.

Owner description:
Mary Baker Eddy was a remarkable New England woman who overcame adversity and challenged convention during a time when women had few rights or opportunities. She is regarded as one of the most successful and influential women of the nineteenth-century. The Mary Baker Eddy Library's mission is to "provide public access and context to original materials and educational experiences about Mary Baker Eddy’s life, ideas, and achievements." This unique library/museum promotes exploration and scholarship through its collections and exhibits, and community interaction and partnership through varied programs and events every year including "Opening Our Doors" and "First Night Boston".The Library is housed in an 11-story, neoclassical style building and is the home of the world-famous Mapparium.
