KINGSTON, NY – The Hudson River Maritime Museum will host a special evening of dinner, music and dancing, featuring renowned musicians Jay Ungar and Molly Mason on Sunday, February 26, 2017, as a fitting culmination to the museum’s second annual membership drive. 

The benefit evening will be held at Ole Savannah Southern Table & Bar in the historic Cornell Building, formerly the boiler shop of the Cornell Steamboat Company, which is located at 100 Rondout Landing, next to the museum on the historic Rondout Creek. 

“Having such cherished musicians as Jay and Molly lead an evening filled with music and dancing is a huge honor,” notes Ellie Burhans, Social Media and Membership Coordinator.  “Members are the life-blood of this museum, and we could not offer our educational programs for adults and children without our members’ financial and volunteer support.” 

From 3:00pm to 5:00pm, the museum will host an open house in its Riverport Wooden Boat School to meet the shipwrights leading the “YouthBoat” education program for teens.  Beginning at 4:00 pm guests can transition to Ole Savannah where a special buffet will be provided.  Jay and Molly will perform throughout the evening until 7:00 pm.

The Hudson River Maritime Museum’s “Show the Museum Some Love” membership drive has set a goal of 100 new members to join the museum’s community. Throughout the month, the museum will offer special gift memberships sent with an exclusive bumper magnet and Valentines. 

Tickers are on sale now! Tickets are $35 and include a complimentary Basic membership for the purchaser or to give as a gift. 

For any questions on how to become a member or purchase tickets, please contact Ellie Burhans at membership@hrmm.org or call 845-338-0081 ext 19.

KINGSTON, NY – The Hudson River Maritime Museum is pleased to announce a special lecture celebrating Black History Month on Saturday, February 4, 2017, at 2:30 pm in the museum’s Riverport Wooden Boat School classroom.

“Black Maritime Workers in Early America:  Challenging Slavery and Shaping Freedom Then and Now” is open to the public with a suggested donation of $5; HRMM members are free.

Dr. Craig Marin, Assistant Professor of Maritime Studies at SEA or Sea Education Association in Woods Hole, MA, will be connecting Early American history experiences for black maritime workers to modern accomplishments and continued challenges for African Americans.  Dr. Marin will use maritime stories uncovered in his research that will further illuminate the circumstances of Africans and African Americans in the maritime world during the age of sail.

For more information about the lecture, please contact Lana Chassman, lchassman@hrmm.org, call 845.338.0071 ext. 15
