home of the Woman's Literary Union of Androscoggin County 

19 Elm Street, Auburn, Maine

The Woman's Literary Union

was organized in 1892 and incorporated in 1909. The WLU of Androscoggin County is a 501c3 non profit organization whose mission is the intellectual, cultural and educational advancement of its members and the community, and to preserve the Foss Mansion.

Each Spring, the WLU awards a scholarship to a high school senior majoring in the fine arts area.

Foss Mansion

Built in 1914-1917, the structure is a mix of Georgian revival, Federal, Spanish and Colonial  styles. The mansion was bequeathed to the union by Ella Foss in 1941, and is on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2017, the Foss Mansion celebrated a hundred years in Auburn.
