Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum Chief Curator Presents at SU
SALISBURY, MD---Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum Chief Curator Pete Lescher shares “hidden stories” of objects from the facility’s collection 6:30 p.m. Thursday, April 4, at 黑料网’s Edward H. Nabb Resource Center for Delmarva History and Culture.
The center is located on the fourth floor of the Patricia R. Guerrieri Academic Commons.
From a 19th-century painting to 20th-century folk sculpture, research in archival and journalistic sources has uncovered surprising cultural connections, providing interpretive opportunities to collect these objects to broder themes in regional and American history. These include natural resources exploitation and conservation, the legacy of slavery and themes of national expansion.
