The America and the Sea Society

Thrillingly Authentic

From its earliest beginnings in 1929, Mystic Seaport aspired to be educational in purpose, national in scope, and inspirational to future generations. Our founders believed deeply that the origins of freedom, so vital to our nation, stemmed largely from our seafaring traditions. They wished to preserve for the youth of our country a knowledge and appreciation of the past to be prepared for the needs of the present and future. In the spirit of our three founders, we invite you to share their courage and vision today.

Inspirational Impact

Mystic Seaport is dedicated to inspiring an enduring connection to the American maritime experience–past, present, and future. Authentic in content and cutting edge in delivery of programs, the Museum is an innovator in the field of public history. Whether it’s a virtual school visit enjoyed by a classroom of students a thousand miles away or taking the 1841 Charles W. Morgan to sea on her ceremonial 38th Voyage to share a cargo of knowledge and inspiration, Mystic Seaport is breaking new ground. Our partnership with donors is a vital component to our success and our continued vibrancy as a history museum for the 21st century.
