This summer, experience the “Summer of the Morgan,” a season-long celebration honoring the Museum’s flagship Charles W. Morgan—the last wooden whaleship in existence—kicking off Memorial Day Weekend. Get ready for a vibrant array of events, exciting programming, and new immersive stories aboard the ship and across the recreated 19th-century Seaport Village. With activities for guests of all ages, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!

Preparations began in March with the downrigging of the Morgan before being hauled ashore at the Museum’s Henry B. du Pont Preservation Shipyard for a classic “shave and haircut.” The re-launch is set for April 28, depending on weather and tides. Visitors are invited to witness the vessel’s return to Chubb’s Wharf and watch our skilled shipwrights complete their work. By mid-May, the Morgan will be ready to board, offering an array of fresh experiences and interactive activities for all to enjoy throughout the summer season.
