Unusual Catches Day

New England’s fishermen harvest millions of pounds of seafood each year. Anyone who has fished for any length of time has a story about something unexpected that came up in the net. From bottles, pottery, and tools to bones, fossils and even bombs, remarkable objects are continuously pulled up from the deep.

Visit us on Saturday, March 2 from 1:00pm-4:00pm while a team of maritime archeologists are at the Center examining treasures from the deep.
