SUMMARY:Costumes & Candlelight: Hammond Castle Museum After Dark
DESCRIPTION:Avoid the crush of crowds and enjoy Halloween week with friends at Hammond Castle Museum after dark! Come dressed in your favorite costume to explore the hallowed halls of Hammond’s castle\, the very rooms where legends of the inventor’s ghost ships were born. \nPlenty of candles cast haunting shadows\, creating the perfect backdrop for your photos. As you wander\, the haunting tunes of John Roper on Hammond’s original Chickering & Sons piano will echo through the galleries\, heightening the eerie atmosphere. Guests can savor the moment with a handcrafted cocktail or mocktail\, available for purchase\, while soaking in the chilling ambiance. \nWhether you’re searching for the ravens we’ve hidden\, following the sound of the piano’s ghostly notes\, or simply reveling in the museum after dark\, our Costumes & Candlelight self-guided tours promise a hauntingly good time. \n– Timed entrances every 15 minutes\n– 6-9 pm Tuesday & 6-10 pm Wednesday.\n– Advanced reservations strongly encouraged. \nThis program is not intended for those under 13 years of age. Guests should plan at least 60 minutes to explore the grounds and galleries of this historic museum. This event is expected to sell out. Parking is included in the price of admission\, though we strongly encourage carpooling with friends. At nearly a century old\, the Museum and grounds are not handicapped accessible and contain many stairs. \nWe recommend arriving 15 minutes early to allow time for the walk from the parking lot to the Museum and for check-in. Unfortunately\, late arrivals cannot be accommodated. If you miss the start of your timed session\, you will not be admitted at another time. Please note: all ticket sales are final\, refunds are not offered\, and exchanges for other tour times are not permitted. Heavy traffic should be considered when planning your travel time. \nHammond Castle Museum member discounts apply!

SUMMARY:Hammers on Stone: The Granite Industry on Cape Ann
DESCRIPTION:For over a century\, the granite industry played a vital role in Cape Ann’s economy\, providing work for men from across New England and around the world\, generating profits for those fortunate enough to share in ownership of the region’s many quarries\, and contributing to the unique and authentic sense of place that characterizes Cape Ann today. On a broader scale\, the industry contributed significantly to building and transportation projects across our nation during a sustained period of growth and expansion. \nDrawing on the Cape Ann Museum’s extensive holdings of objects and archival materials related to the industry\, most of which were gifted to the Cape Ann Museum by historian Barbara Erkkila (1918-2013)\, Hammers on Stone will explore the history of the granite trade and its impact on the community. The exhibition will examine methods of harvesting\, cutting\, and finishing stone\, as well as how granite was transported from quarry to wharf and further afield. The exhibit will also explore the lives of those involved in quarrying and consider how the industry helped shape Cape Ann’s artistic landscape\, inspiring generations of artists to the present day. \nImage: Samuel Lewis Pullman (1900-1961)\, Quarryman Joe Boston\, 1930\, oil on canvas.

SUMMARY:Hammers on Stone: The Granite Industry on Cape Ann
DESCRIPTION:For over a century\, the granite industry played a vital role in Cape Ann’s economy\, providing work for men from across New England and around the world\, generating profits for those fortunate enough to share in ownership of the region’s many quarries\, and contributing to the unique and authentic sense of place that characterizes Cape Ann today. On a broader scale\, the industry contributed significantly to building and transportation projects across our nation during a sustained period of growth and expansion. \nDrawing on the Cape Ann Museum’s extensive holdings of objects and archival materials related to the industry\, most of which were gifted to the Cape Ann Museum by historian Barbara Erkkila (1918-2013)\, Hammers on Stone will explore the history of the granite trade and its impact on the community. The exhibition will examine methods of harvesting\, cutting\, and finishing stone\, as well as how granite was transported from quarry to wharf and further afield. The exhibit will also explore the lives of those involved in quarrying and consider how the industry helped shape Cape Ann’s artistic landscape\, inspiring generations of artists to the present day. \nImage: Samuel Lewis Pullman (1900-1961)\, Quarryman Joe Boston\, 1930\, oil on canvas.

SUMMARY:Hammers on Stone: The Granite Industry on Cape Ann
DESCRIPTION:For over a century\, the granite industry played a vital role in Cape Ann’s economy\, providing work for men from across New England and around the world\, generating profits for those fortunate enough to share in ownership of the region’s many quarries\, and contributing to the unique and authentic sense of place that characterizes Cape Ann today. On a broader scale\, the industry contributed significantly to building and transportation projects across our nation during a sustained period of growth and expansion. \nDrawing on the Cape Ann Museum’s extensive holdings of objects and archival materials related to the industry\, most of which were gifted to the Cape Ann Museum by historian Barbara Erkkila (1918-2013)\, Hammers on Stone will explore the history of the granite trade and its impact on the community. The exhibition will examine methods of harvesting\, cutting\, and finishing stone\, as well as how granite was transported from quarry to wharf and further afield. The exhibit will also explore the lives of those involved in quarrying and consider how the industry helped shape Cape Ann’s artistic landscape\, inspiring generations of artists to the present day. \nImage: Samuel Lewis Pullman (1900-1961)\, Quarryman Joe Boston\, 1930\, oil on canvas.
