Sand Island Kitchen

SAND ISLAND

This exhibit presents scenes evocative of life on Sand Island, a documentary in the words and photographs of Sand Islanders, and a reference library of their diaries and stories. Life on Sand Island is lived without electricity or running water in the 21st century just as it was when Frank Shaw settled there in 1870.
