About this Event

We welcome historian & knitter Rebecca Bayreuther Donohue for an ode to wool and marvel once again at how the sea connects us all. Garments like nippers, half-handers, and the infamous fisherman’s sweater each hold a romantic yet real place in our coastal history. Please register.
