Program Description
After a whale sinks The Essex in the 1820s, its crew is stranded at sea for 90 days, thousands of miles from home. Braving storms, starvation and despair, the surviving men are pushed to their limits to do the unthinkable to stay alive. Come see and explore the artifacts in the book "In the Heart of the Sea," focusing on the whaleboat as an object that tells a story. Students try their own hands at carving scrimshaw, a sailor's classic folk craft. 120 minutes Add 30 minutes extended time for $0.50/student (students bring their own and eat in our workshop)
