SUMMARY:The Home Road
DESCRIPTION:The Home Road\nMonday\, November 13 at 6:30 p.m.\nColonial Theatre\n163 High St\, Belfast\n$12 members\, children and students\n$15 non-members \nTonya Shevenell \nWe are excited to bring Portland based filmmaker Tonya Shevenell to the Colonial theatre to screen her film The Home Road. \nIn 1845\, 19-year-old Israel Shevenell left his home in Canada and walked nearly 200 miles to Biddeford\, Maine. He found work and built a new life in an American boomtown being transformed by the Industrial Revolution\, and is recognized as the city’s first permanent French-Canadian settler and French voter. \nIn 2015\, his 74-year-old great-great-grandson\, Ray Shevenell\, retraced the pioneering journey\, walking from Compton\, Quebec to Biddeford.  \nTonya Shevenell tells their stories in her first documentary film\, an exploration of family\, history\, and identity – and how a journey into the unexpected inevitably leads to…home.   \nProceeds from this screening will benefit the PMM photo archives. \nBuy Tickets Online\n  \nOfficial Trailer

SUMMARY:The Net Result: Our Evolving Fisheries 
DESCRIPTION:The Net Result: Our Evolving Fisheries \nHistory Conference\nSaturday\, April 8\, 2017\n8:30 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.\nUniversity of Maine Hutchinson Center\n80 Belmont Avenue\, Belfast\, Maine \nStudent: $30\nMuseum Members: $50\nTeacher/Non-Profit Employee: $50\nNon-members: $60 \nThis year’s History Conference delves into statement: Human innovation and technology have proven to be too successful for the health of our fisheries and our local ecosystem.  Our line-up of scientists\, historians\, journalists\, activists\, consumers and fishermen will answer the question: \nHow did this happen and what do we do now?\nThe History of Overfishing: the Price of Efficiency\nJeffrey Bolster\, University of New Hampshire Professor of History\nJeffrey Bolster brings historical context to the present issues facing the fishing industry.  As author of The Mortal Sea: Fishing the Atlantic in the Age of Sail\, he shows that while the eradication of fish has gone on for centuries\, the impact of fishing in the 20th century has been devastating.  \nTaking Stock: the Story Data Tells About Our Fisheries\nTed Ames\, Fisheries Ecologist & Co-founder of Penobscot East Resource Center\nUsing catch data from historic fishing logs and other sources\, marine ecologists have tracked the decline in fishing stocks as the use of more efficient fishing technology rose.  Ted Ames\, a fisherman and historical fisheries ecology researcher\, whose work in marine conservation earned him a MacArthur Fellowship\, looks at the past and present scientific data on the groundfish stock and predicts future trends if conservation measures are adopted or ignored. \nThe Search for Consensus: Sustaining the Fisheries\nPeter Neill\, Director of World Ocean Observatory\nPeter Neill has been advocating for the health and sustainability of our oceans through numerous means of communication.  He will discuss the evolution of the scientist-fishery harvester conversation and initiatives by each to address sustainability issues and meet conservation objectives imposed by regulatory bodies.  \nGroundfish Policy in Maine: a Retrospective\nPatrick Shepard\, Fisheries Policy Associate at Penobscot East Resource Center\nFisheries policy and conservation have not always been synonymous in our history.  Patrick Shepard walks us through the major turning points in the groundfish regulations and brings us the current crossroad in policy as we plot the future of this historically important fishery. \nGastronomy and the Sea: Our Changing Tastes\nNancy Harmon Jenkins\, Food Historian and Writer\nThe seafood\, we as humans consume\, has evolved over time based on the availability of the resource locally and through Trans-Oceanic trading webs\, as well as the latest culinary trends.  Food historian Nancy Harmon Jenkins charts the rise and fall of salt fish\, sardine on crackers and other seafood favorites from the past\, discusses current seafood consumption and predicts future seafood culinary trends. \nTurning the Tide on Decline: The Fisherman’s Perspective\nGlen Libby\, Manager of Port Clyde Fresh Catch and co-author of Caught: time\, place\, fish. \nAs a fisherman\, Mr. Libby has seen how the technological revolution has impacted how and where fishermen fish over a period of several decades. Not all of these advances were good from a sustainable fisheries perspective but we are now learning how to use technology to enhance the recovery of our groundfish fishery here in Maine.  \nDocumenting the Evolution: National Fisherman\nDave Jackson\, former publisher of National Fisherman\nNational Fisherman has been the periodical of record for the fishing industry for over 65 years\, providing context for today’s hot button issues in the industry.  Former publisher Dave Jackson\, using photographs from the periodical’s pages\, will explore how National Fisherman documented the technological evolution in the fisheries and the resulting ecological and social effects. \nFor more information or to register by phone\, please call 207-548-2529. \nRegister Online

SUMMARY:PMM History Conference 2014
DESCRIPTION:Save the Date! \nExploring the Magic of Photography: Painting with Light\nSaturday\, November 1\, 8:00 am to 2:30 pm\nUniversity of Maine Hutchinson Center\, Belfast\, Maine\n80 Belmont Avenue\, Belfast\, Maine \n Register online or call us at 207-548-2529 \nConference Tickets: \n\n$50 Museum Members\n$60 Non-members\n$50 Teachers and Non-profit Employees\n$30 Students\n\nHistory Conference Brochure \n  \nSchedule: 8:00 to 8:45 am – Registration\n9:00 to 9:30 am – Evolution of the Photographic Snapshot\nMichael Simon\, Retired Professor of Photography at Beloit College\nWe live in the age of the selfie\, but originally photography was the work of professionals and serious amateurs. In 1900 Eastman Kodak introduced the Brownie and suddenly everyone had a camera in their hand. What pictures did they take then\, and how has it changed over time? The photographic snapshot has a fascinating history illuminating how we see ourselves as a culture.  \n9:45 to 10:15 am – Stalking the Elusive Historic Photograph\nBill Bunting\, Maine historian and author of A Day’s Work: A Sampler of Historic Maine Photographs 1860-1920 Part I & II\, Live Yankees\, and Sea Struck\nPhotographic treasures are hidden away in historical societies and private collections as well as attics and barns. Finding these gems is an exciting adventure requiring knowledge\, skill\, diplomacy\, patience and persistence. The rewards of saving these documents of our cultural heritage are enormous. \n10:30 to 11:00 am – Beyond Nostalgia: Four Maine Women Photographers at the Turn-of-the-Century\nLibby Bischof\, Associate Professor of History\, University of Southern Maine\nIn this richly illustrated presentation\, Bischof will discuss the lives of four Maine women photographers working at the turn of the century: Chansonetta Stanley Emmons\, Emma Lewis Coleman\, Emma Sewall\, and Joanna Colcord\, focusing on the common themes in their photographic work\, as well as their inclinations towards local history and preservation. She will also address modern interpretations of the work of these photographers as sentimental and nostalgic and offer an alternate perspective based on their historic preservation work. \n11:15 to 11:45 am – Documenting Fishing in New England 2005-2014\nSam Murfitt\, Professional Photographer\nFor over ten years\, Sam Murfitt has been documenting Maine’s Working Waterfront. He has photographed the lobstermen\, fish and bait dealers\, boat builders and fishermen both on dry land and at sea. Seeing the fishing industry rapidly changing and disappearing\, he decided to focus his attention on documenting the disappearing traditions and crafts\, and the people involved in them. \n12:00 am to 12:45 pm – LUNCH\n1:00 to 1:30 pm – Photography and American Literature:  From Ideal to Real\nLaura Saltz\, Associate Professor and Director American Studies Program\, Colby College\nTo paraphrase historian of photography Gail Buckland\, photography is not merely a technology\, it is also an idea. This talk gives an overview of the ways that American literature helped articulate the idea of photography in its first few decades. As both an ideal force of nature and a model of realistic representation\, photography in turn helped change the literature that sought to imagine its meanings and potentials.  \n1:45 to 2:15 pm – Close to the Land & Close to the Sea: The Photography of Kosti Ruohomaa\nDeanna S. Bonner-Ganter\, Curator of Photography\, Art\, and Archives\, Maine State Museum\nMany legends surround the Finish-American photographer Kosti Ruohomaa\, and it is said his life was “haunted”. Ruohomaa was an award-winning photo journalist who shot iconic portraits of working Americans which appeared in LIFE\, National Geographic\, and other publications from 1940 to 1960\, but Maine was always his favorite subject. Bonner-Ganter has studied Kosti Ruohomaa for twenty years\, and her biography of Ruohomaa will soon be published by Down East Books. \n

Kathryn Olmstead\, editor of Echoes magazine and a columnist for Bangor Daily News writes\, “David’s memoir is laced with humor and filled with anecdotes that make it a tribute to small-town America.” The 144-page memoir includes 41 photos or drawings and paintings David Estey did over the years. It will be available in the Museum store as well as at Left Bank Books in Belfast. \nThe Penobscot Marine Museum is on Route One in Searsport\, Maine and has seven new exhibits and over fifty programs and events during the 2014 season.
