Join CU Maurice River for a Family-Friendly Friday: Fireside Sea Shanties in the historic seafaring village of Mauricetown. This event offers a unique opportunity to learn about the fascinating history of ship captains who once called this area home from CU's Seafaring Chanteuse Lisa Stewart Garrison. Mauricetown, with its easy access to the Maurice River, its shipbuilding legacy, and its abundance of resources, was an ideal location for many sea captains to settle.
Gather around the fire to enjoy traditional sea shanties and captivating sailing stories that bring Down Jersey's rich nautical history to life. This family-friendly evening promises to be an enjoyable and educational experience for all ages, providing a deeper connection to the Wild and Scenic Maurice River's maritime heritage.
Participants should be prepared to be outdoors. Dress appropriately for the weather and bring a seat for around the fire pit.
