Mapping Mattapoisett: Tracing Our Place in the World

Mapping Mattapoisett: Tracing Our Place in the World explores the museum’s extensive collection of maps and charts, most of which have never been displayed. The exhibit will have maps of all types on show, from Clifford Ashley’s “A Chart of the Whale Coast of New England” c. 1810 down to small, hand-drawn sketches of old Mattapoisett street plans and landmarks. The exhibit at 5 Church Street, Mattapoisett will be open on Thursdays, 10:00 am – 4:00 pm, Fridays, 1:00 – 4:00 pm, and Saturdays, 1:00 – 4:00 pm, throughout July and August. Come visit to see how Mattapoisett has been represented through cartography! Questions: info@mattapoisetthistoricalsociety.org; 508-758-2844; www.mattapoisetthistoricalsociety.org.
