Open year-round, The Brick Store Museum is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit institution governed by a Board of Trustees. It showcases nearly 70,000 artifacts and archival materials relating to the history of the Kennebunks, from its earliest settlements to the present, and features changing exhibitions in six galleries, as well as educational program and special events.

Operations are currently managed by a full-time executive director, a part-time outreach coordinator, two staff volunteers and the contributions of hundreds.

The Brick Store Museum is accredited by the American Association of Museums, a distinction held by only 10 other museums in the State of Maine.
