From January 3 to 5, 2025, the New Bedford Whaling Museum invites you to join one of the world’s most renowned readings of Herman Melville’s iconic American novel, Moby-Dick. The Moby-Dick Marathon features a 25-hour read-a-thon from Saturday to Sunday, interspersed with exciting Melville-inspired activities. Enjoy engaging conversations with scholars from the Melville Society Cultural Project (MSCP), live performances, hands-on activities, and more.
Since 1997, the New Bedford Whaling Museum has celebrated the anniversary of Melville’s 1841 departure from the Port of New Bedford and Fairhaven aboard the whaleship Acushnet with this beloved mid-winter tradition.
Start planning your journey now and prepare to join us in 2025 as we hunt for the elusive white whale! Admission to the Museum is free from Saturday, January 4 to Sunday, January 5, for the Moby-Dick Marathon.
