A Rising Tide in the Heart of the Chesapeake was expanded to include new stories of watermen and their families from Smith Island. Our restored pre-Civil War Mitchell House—which belonged to Frederick Douglass’s sister, and its 19th century lifestyle exhibit inside—opened on the Museum’s first Frederick Douglass Day in October.

The Museum expanded its partnerships with other non-profits to present Sharpshooters of the Chesapeake at the 40th Annual Waterfowl Festival and to welcome several visiting vessels to our docks such as the Maryland Dove. The boatyard buzzed with activity, as restoration of the legendary skipjack Rosie Parks began in full swing, and other repairs to our floating fleet were made on a regular basis—all conducted in public view. Called by some “the queen of the fleet,” the Museum’s 1889 nine-log bugeye Edna E. Lockwood has undergone extensive repair and restoration (read more about this on page 7). For decades in the mid-twentieth century, the steam-powered screw tug Huntington was the venerable flagship of Newport News Shipbuilding Company.
