SUMMARY:Camden Conference Speaker Paul DeOrsay presents Arctic Exploration\, Science\, and the Inuit on Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Paul DeOrsay \nThursday\, February 4\n6pm\nFree\, Registration Required \nThe Camden Conference\, Penobscot Marine Museum\, and the Belfast Free Library will present Paul DeOrsay on Thursday\, February 4th for a program on Arctic exploration\, science\, and the Inuit. This event will be open to all on Zoom.  \nThe 19th century saw a prolific bloom of interest in the Arctic among European and North American nations. Some 50 major expeditions were mounted between 1815 and 1909\, most in search of a Northwest Passage. Along the way\, these expeditions gathered data on geology\, oceanography\, flora and fauna\, magnetism\, gravity and astronomy. Later\, as it was learned that the passage existed but was essentially impassable\, exploration focused on discovering just what lay farther north: an open sea\, another continent\, or just more ice? Finally\, the focus became reaching the North Pole\, a somewhat intangible goal\, but one that generated public enthusiasm and national pride.\n \nThe Inuit are an indigenous people who populate the fringes of the Arctic Ocean from Alaska to Greenland. Over the course of a few centuries\, starting around 1100 CE\, they had displaced the earlier Dorset Culture as they migrated from west to east. Living a semi-nomadic existence in relatively small bands\, they had managed to subsist in the most hostile environment on earth.  In this presentation we will survey the century of Arctic exploration as it brought two drastically different cultures together in the harshest of circumstances. \nRegistration required. Register here.  \nThis event is presented in anticipation of the 34th Annual Camden Conference—The Geopolitics of the Arctic: A Region in Peril\, filmed live at the Camden Opera House and around the world\, and presented via Livestream on February 20-21\, 2021.  Visit www.camdenconference.org for further information. \nBio: Paul DeOrsay’s working life has been ocean-focused.  The first 20 years were spent sailing old or traditional vessels\, first in Penobscot Bay\, and ultimately as master of a sailing research / school ship ranging the western North Atlantic and Caribbean. For the next 20 years he worked in the administration of maritime museums and historic ships\, starting in Galveston\, Texas\, then moving to Philadelphia\, and finally as Director of the Whaling Museum in Cold Spring Harbor\, NY.  From 2012-17\, he served as Director of Friends of the Bay\, a small environmental advocacy organization in Oyster Bay\, NY. \nSince retiring back to Maine\, Paul has been volunteering with maritime history and marine environmental organizations (when not sailing\, either on the bay or frozen lakes.) \nHis interest in Arctic exploration was sparked by a brief account of an 1860 schooner expedition from Thomaston\, Maine\, to Greenland\, chartered by a Bowdoin College professor and manned by students.

SUMMARY:Fishermen’s Mittens Zoom Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Part I on Thursday\, February 18th and Part II on Thursday\, March 4th \nSessions start at 6pm\n$40/participant\, including shipping. Register here.\nRegister by February 10th to ensure your materials arrive with time to start knitting before the workshop\nFor intermediate to experienced knitters \nBefore rubber gloves\, a fisherman’s wife or mother or an enterprising home economist knit mittens\, experimenting with the design to produce a warm\, durable mitten. Fannie Johnson\, who made three pairs of mittens in the PMM collection\, followed a double-knit\, shrunk-down type pattern from the late 1930s. This set of two workshops is part history\, part DIY.  \nIncluded with the workshop fee\, participants will receive by mail 2 skeins of Bartlett 2-ply fisherman yarn and 4 number four double-pointed needles. Participants should start their mitten project before the first workshop. The pattern is available here. During part one of the Zoom workshop on February 18th\, PMM curator Cipperly Good will first share the history of fishermen’s mittens in Maine and the Canadian Maritimes. Then she will continue with describing her experience knitting fishermen’s mittens and some tips to get around the tough parts.  \nOn March 4th\, in part two of the workshop\, Cipperly will discuss fulling and felting and share the process she went through to complete her fishermen’s mittens. Workshop sessions will be recorded and available on YouTube to those that register. Registration is required\, click here to register. Contact Jeana at jganskop@pmm-maine.org if you have any questions.
