The New Bedford Whaling Museum presents Visualizing Melville a new exhibit opening on Saturday, January 8, 2011 at 11:30 am.
The words of Herman Melville conjure up a wealth of images and the Museum’s collections are full of materials that perfectly resonate with his vivid text. Come see “Quakers with a vengeance” juxtaposed with “A heathenish array of monstrous clubs and spears.” Open through August 2011.
