Maritime Heritage Series: Golden Pirates of the Silver Screen
January 26, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
How did pirates go from being the terrorists of the 1700s to characters in a children’s television show that teaches good manners? This presentation will examine how movies and television have influenced the way we view 18th century pirates today. Join Associate Education Curator Christine Brin in the museum auditorium to see how onscreen pirates and real pirates of the past have little in common. Free; no registration required. Or watch online live via the museum’s Facebook page or Zoom.

The Museum reserves the right to cancel any program that does not meet the minimum participant requirement up to one week before the program is scheduled.
