SUMMARY:Conference on Newburyport and the China Trade\, 1844-2024
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, October 28\, 2024\n8:30 AM 4:00 PM\nWilkie Center for the Performing Arts at The Governor’s Academy (map) \nOrganized by the Museum of Old Newbury\, please visit https://www.newburyhistory.org or call 978-462-2681 for tickets today. \nJoin us for a full day Conferece on Newburyport and the China Trade\, 1844-2024: Commerce\, Diplomacy\, and the Arts in the Years of the Dragon. \nIn 1843\, Caleb Cushing of Newburyport resigned from the U.S. Congress to become America’s first commissioner to China. He arrived in China with four American warships\, laden with gifts including revolvers\, a telescope\, and an encyclopedia\, and used both threats and flattery to achieve his ends. The subsequent 1844 Treaty of Wanghia\, named for the village where it was signed\, was the first treaty between the U.S. and China. It was one more way in which Newburyport and the China Trade were inextricably linked. \nJoin Eric Jay Dolin\, author of When America Met China\, and Dane Morrison\, author of True Yankees: The South Seas & the Discovery of American Identity\, along with art\, shipbuilding\, and modern China experts to evaluate the impact of the China Trade on various aspects of our community\, our nation\, and the world. \nThis full-day event includes lunch and all sessions and is hosted by The Governor’s Academy. \nTickets are $45 for Museum of Old Newbury Members; $60 for non-members
