Event Details

Prior to the development of train, car and air travel, water travel was a crucial means of transporting goods and people, and continues to have an important role in leisure, travel and defense. This program traces the development of maritime technology, usage and safety measures through examination of some of the shipwrecks that are part of life for a coastal state like NJ. This program will be conducted by a museum educator from the Museum of Early Trades and Crafts.
