By the late 1960s, Lucy was in serious disrepair. That’s when the Save Lucy Committee was formed—a dedicated group that still cares for her today. As Margaret Mead famously said, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world." And indeed, they did. Just look at Lucy now! ✨🐘

Big changes are happening at Lucy’s Gift Shop! 🎉 While we make way for a brand-new, ADA-compliant interpretive center, we’ve temporarily moved just across the street! Find us at the corner of Atlantic & Washington Avenues to shop unique Lucy merchandise and grab your tour tickets. 🐘✨ Come visit!

Longer days mean more time to admire Lucy! Who else is ready for brighter evenings and more golden sunsets? Summer is just around the corner. ☀️🐘 #DaylightSavingTime

Step back in time with this rare glimpse of Lucy from the ocean, captured before 1929. Though the photo’s a bit grainy, history shines through in the details—Margate’s long-lost boardwalk stretching along the shore and the grand Turkish Pavilion with its distinctive onion-shaped domes standing proudly behind Lucy. A gem of a shot! ✨🐘

We’ve moved the sign announcing Lucy as America's Best Roadside Attraction right in front of her—making it the perfect photo op! 📸🐘

Next time you visit, strike a pose with Lucy and the sign, and don’t forget to tag us! We love seeing and sharing your pics! 🩶

Did you know Lucy is featured on one of Margate’s water towers? Zoom in on the water tower on the right and you’ll spot her! ❤️🐘

A lot has changed in 143 years, but Lucy remains timeless. ✨🐘

A rare glimpse inside Lucy’s past! 📸✨ Almost no photos exist of Lucy’s interior before the 1970s, making this a truly special find. Notice the small triangular door behind the couple—an excellent example of Victorian architecture. No, it’s not a secret passageway… just a closet! 🐘

🚨 IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! 🚨 Lucy will be closed this weekend as we move our gift shop to a temporary new location at 9219 Atlantic Avenue. Thank you for your patience and support—we can’t wait to welcome you back soon! ❤️🐘
