From the Town Crier: Rose Dorothea
Imagine all the things you’d expect to find inside a library. Books, magazines, perhaps an interesting art collection, etc. And then there’s Provincetown’s Public Library, which contains all of the above—plus a half-scale replica of the Rose Dorothea, a champion ‘Indian Head’ racing schooner, occupying the second and third floors.

356 Commercial Street, (508) 487-7094. Admission is free!
