Exhibition

The RNEH exhibition will map a more complex historical framework of New England’s maritime history by engaging with questions of race and sovereignty, weaving a new narrative with creative use of visual and material culture, archaeology, oral traditions, and songs and performance. Tentatively entitled, Entwined: Freedom, Sovereignty, and the Sea, the exhibition foregrounds convergences, solidarities, and co-created histories and futures across multiple communities, as well as delving into specific experiences unique to each people and place.
