National Park Service: New Bedford Whaling National Historic Park
Wednesday, March 22 at 12:00 pm on Zoom
Online in collaboration with the Tewksbury Public Library, enjoy a virtual lunchtime lecture from the New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park, entitled “Stories from the Whaling Port.” When Quaker merchants moved their whaling businesses from Nantucket to New Bedford, they started a 100-year industry that forever shaped New Bedford’s maritime culture. Learn about a daring artic rescue in 1897, when ice closed in around 275 whalemen and left them stranded with limited supplies. Please click here to register and receive the Zoom link. This program will be recorded. All registrants will receive the recording via email within 24 hours of the program.

St. Patrick's Day Trivia Challenge
Saturday, March 25 at 11:30 am
Join us for a trivia challenge that covers all things Irish — authors, musicians, culture, and more! You can play on your own or with a team. Each person/team will record their own answers, so no need to race to buzz in before others. At the end of each round, we’ll review the answers and track scores. Prizes will be awarded to the first and second place teams. May the luck of the Irish be with you! Please visit our website to register in advance — and be sure to come with a team name.
