In addition to the Sentinels of the Shore exhibit on lighthouses, the Sturgeon venue includes tours of the moored John Purves tugboat and other galleries with exhibits on boat building, shipwrecks, ship models, steamships, and the maritime history of the area presented through many artifact and interactive displays.
