On Friday, July 19, 2024, at 7:30 p.m., a free outdoor screening of the 1997 film "Amistad" by Steven Spielberg will be held at the Canal Boathouse at Long Wharf, of the Amistad Freedom Schooner, the 129-foot reconstruction replica of the original historical schooner, as a commanding visual backdrop. Visitors can visit the schooner for an open house and “Food Truck Paradise” on Long Wharf between 3 - 7 p.m. and bring their own picnics and chairs to the deck.
A collaboration of the New Haven Museum (NHM), Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery, Resistance, and Abolition, and Discovering Amistad, and co-sponsored by the Amistad Committee, the Office of New Haven Affairs, and the Black & Brown Soul Cyclist, the screening will be preceded by an introduction exploring the film’s critical reception.
