At Anchor: A Stay-at-Home Soirée
A Benefit for New Bedford Fishing Heritage Center
In light of the ongoing pandemic, we are forgoing our annual in-person fundraiser this year. Instead, the Center will host an online auction for two weeks in October and will celebrate the “Bounty of the SouthCoast” with a Coupon Book offering discounts to local restaurants and seafood markets as well as seafood recipes from local chefs.
