SUMMARY:26th Annual Heritage Award Celebration at Museums on the Green
DESCRIPTION:26th Annual Heritage Award Celebration at Museums on the Green\nCelebrate Tamsen Evans George with the 2026 Heritage Award \nThursday\, October 1 | 4:00–6:00 p.m. | Falmouth Museums on the Green \nThis October\, we are delighted to honor Tamsen Evans George with the Falmouth Historical Society’s 2026 Heritage Award\, celebrating her extraordinary contributions to Falmouth’s history\, historic preservation\, the arts\, and the Museums on the Green. \nTamsen’s connection to Falmouth began when she was just eight years old\, and she has been an active member of our community for decades. Over the years\, she has served as president of the Falmouth Historical Society for eight years\, volunteered as a docent and Collections Committee member\, helped strengthen our Federal furniture collection\, contributed to exhibitions and community programs\, and played an important role in the preservation and restoration of the Dr. Francis Wicks House. She was involved in the work of “Fix the Wicks” long before it became the capital campaign we know today. Her commitment to Falmouth extends well beyond the Museums\, including nearly a decade of service on the Falmouth Historical Commission\, work with the Community Preservation Committee\, and her recent involvement with the Falmouth 250th Committee. \nHer passion for history has also shaped her professional life and her writing. Tamsen has worked with organizations including the Cambridge Arts Council\, Massachusetts Cultural Council\, and Museum of Fine Arts\, where she served as Head of Public Programs. She later led two nonprofit organizations and became deeply involved in historic restoration\, including the remarkable rehabilitation of historic properties and the preservation of historic carriages. Following her retirement\, she turned to historical writing\, authoring Allegiance\, The Life and Times of William Eustis\, which was an award finalist in the United States History category of American Book Fest\, as well as three eighteenth-century murder mysteries. Through all of this work\, Tamsen has shared a belief that history becomes most meaningful when we understand the real people behind it. \nPlease join us for an autumnal afternoon celebrating Tamsen and the remarkable legacy she has helped build in Falmouth. The celebration will take place in the Cultural Center at the Falmouth Museums on the Green\, a building that holds a special place in Tamsen’s heart. The afternoon will include food and libations\, along with remarks from friends\, colleagues\, and community members who will share stories and highlight Tamsen’s many contributions to Falmouth and the Historical Society. \nTickets are $50\, with proceeds benefiting the Museum’s education and collections programs. We hope you will join us in celebrating Tamsen and thanking her for the many ways she has helped preserve\, strengthen\, and bring Falmouth’s history to life. \nRegister Here\nMenu\n\nBourne to Cater will be serving an autumnal spread including: \n• Mini seafood cakes with remoulade \n• Spinach and artichoke dip\n• Fresh mozzarella and tomato caprese skewers\n• Onion and fig jam crostini with goat cheese crumbles\n• Assorted chocolates and pastries by Nadja Andrade \nOur Silent Auction\nWe are especially excited about offering a two night stay at 75 Locust Street\, the historic sea captain’s home of Thomas and Mercy Lawrence. The stay accommodates up to 16 guests and is available midweek from December through March. It also includes a private tour of the Lawrence family’s remarkable whaling collection. The total value of this experience is $2\,500. Bidding will start at $500 and increase by $100 increments. \nKnown as “Cap’n Tom” in Katharine Lee Bates’ poem When Cap’n Tom Comes Home\, Thomas Lawrence was one of four Lawrence brothers who became whaling captains. He and his wife Mercy sailed together twice\, aboard the Anaconda from 1852 to 1856 and the Alto from 1857 to 1862. Their daughters Fanny\, Mary\, and Amelia also experienced life both at sea and ashore. Bates\, a Falmouth native who grew up watching whaling vessels come and go\, drew on this world in her poem\, which includes references to objects brought home from around the globe. \nWe hope you will join us for an afternoon of good food\, good company\, and this very special opportunity as we celebrate Tamsen!

SUMMARY:Exhibition Opening & Members' Reception for Finding Vinland: Exploring the Possibility of Vikings on Cape Cod
DESCRIPTION:Finding Vinland: Exploring the Possibility of Vikings on Cape Cod\nThis new exhibition opens at Falmouth Museums on the Green on Thursday\, September 3\, 2026\, with a special members’ reception from 4pm to 6pm\, and opens to the public on Friday\, September 4. Located in the Visitor’s Center Hallett Barn. \nCurated by an advisory panel of scholars and experts from around the world\, this fascinating new exhibition explores one of Cape Cod’s most enduring historical mysteries: could Vikings have reached these shores centuries before Columbus? Through archaeology\, geography\, Native perspectives\, and historical scholarship\, the exhibition examines the long-debated connections between Cape Cod and the legendary Norse voyages to Vinland. Featuring artifacts\, maps\, interpretive panels\, and local stories\, Finding Vinland invites visitors to consider how myth\, memory\, and evidence intersect in the search for New England’s earliest European encounters. Intimate in scale but global in scope\, the exhibition offers a compelling new perspective on Falmouth’s place within the broader story of Atlantic exploration. \nThe exhibition will include newly commissioned works by Wampanoag artist Julia Marden (Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head\, Aquinnah)\, whose historically accurate traditional craftsmanship offers visitors an authentic connection to the Indigenous culture and lifeways of Cape Cod at the time of the Norse voyages. \nWe’re delighted to welcome Cape Cod Oyster Company as the presenting sponsor of our newest exhibition! Join us for our Members’ Exhibition Reception on Thursday\, September 3\, from 4:00–6:00 p.m.\, where they’ll be serving fresh local oysters alongside bubbly\, the perfect way to usher in Labor Day weekend at the museum.

In honor of this Jubilee\, Rachel Lovett\, Executive Director\, asked long time member and local artist Karen Rinaldo if she would create something that would reflect the local history and maritime influence that has been at the center of what the museum represents. \nA collaborative effort began in October 2025 with the museum staff and the artist. In March 2026\, the artist reported the history spanning 125 years had been completed\, executed in her popular montage style painting design. With each step\, you will sense the complexity and mental focus and marvel that it is all done without a computer. \nThere will be an unveiling of the commemorative work and visual historian Karen Rinaldo will present a slide program documenting the process involved in creating this historical painting. \nThe 40-minute presentation pays tribute to its founders\, past presidents\, the endearing campus landscape and buildings and you\, the members. \nPrints will be available\, and may be personalized\, purchased from the Falmouth Historical Society and will be available exclusively from the museum’s Whaling Wives Gift Shop. \nTickets: Museums on the Green Members & Volunteers free\, non-members suggested donation of $10pp. \nNot a member yet? Join Here! \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Pedal Through the Past: A Bike Tour with the Falmouth Historical Society
DESCRIPTION:SOLD OUT – Pedal Through the Past: A Bike Tour with the Falmouth Historical Society \nJune 5th\, 1:30pm \nSpring is in the air—the best time of year for a long bicycle ride!  If you love bicycling and history\, please join us for a historic bike tour around Falmouth on Friday\, June 5th. \nMuseum docent and tour guide Scott Wayne will lead a small pack of cyclists on a route that loops from the Village Green\, down to Woods Hole’s Penzance Point\, and back again. \nMuch of the trip takes place along the Shining Sea Bikeway\, which was dedicated in November 1975 as part of the town’s U.S. Bicentennial celebration.  Now that we’re marking the 250th birthday of the United States in 2026\, it’s an especially good time to revisit the bikeway and to discover a variety of historic landmarks nearby. \nThis unique tour will recreate a journey first taken by Falmouth citizens in September 1930. In that year\, Massachusetts was celebrating its 300th birthday\, and each town placed markers at its own most cherished historic sites.  Falmouth residents made a solemn procession to nine locations\, unveiling memorial plaques at each stop.  They traveled on foot and by motorcar\, and no doubt a few hardy souls joined the parade on their bicycles! \nThese historic markers have stood for 96 years.  You may have been passing them by for years without even noticing them.  Some locations\, like the Village Green\, you can probably guess.  Others may be news to you (Ever heard of General Swift’s birthplace?).  Our bike tour will stop at each location\, where Scott will explain its significance and show vintage photos.   Counting the time spent at these stops\, the tour should take about three hours. \nWHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW \n\nThe ride covers about 11 miles\, of which 7 are on the bike path and 4 on streets.\nBring your own bike\, helmet\, water\, etc.\nNo fully electric bikes; pedal-assisted okay\nParticipants must be 16 or older\nParticipants must sign a liability waiver\nLimit of 8 participants\nNo rain date; if canceled for weather your money will be refunded\nTour is 3 hours\n\nTickets: $25 Non-Members / $15 Museums on the Green Members \nNot a member yet? Join Here! \nRegister Here

Like many others\, she has taken on multiple roles. She revived and expanded the third grade program plus participated in other school collaborations. She has worked on fundraising\, including as co-chair of the 2016 renovations of Conant House. Other positions she has held include Interim Executive Director (2000-2001)\, Secretary of the Board (2000-2006) and most recently as President (June 2022 – January 2023). She has done extensive research on Falmouth’s whaling history\, among other topics. For the new Falmouth Art Center\, Carolyn was a key person in its building and fundraising. Prior to moving year-around to Falmouth\, she served on the Massport Board by gubernatorial appointment. Carolyn has degrees from Wellesley College (BA) and NYU School of Law (JD). \nFalmouth’s Whaling Heritage \nIn the early 19th century\, Falmouth remained a remote farming and fishing community. But then the growing New England whaling industry began to capture the imagination of Falmouth youth who dreamed of adventure as Cape Horn sailors searching the Pacific Ocean for whales and whale oil. Falmouth was no competition for New Bedford\, the “city that lit the world\,” but whaling and whaling-related trades became Falmouth’s principal business. Falmouth was the home port of 13 whaling ships that made 52 whaling voyages\, mainly to the Pacific\, between 1820 and 1860. Six whalers were built in Falmouth\, most of them at Bar Neck Wharf in Woods Hole\, under the oversight of the patriarch of Falmouth whaling\, Elijah Swift. With a total population of no more than 2600\, Falmouth produced an astounding 65 whaling ship captains\, some of whom took their wives on whaling voyages of three to five years and had children born at sea. In this presentation\, you will compare the Falmouth boys’ dreams of glory and adventure with the hard\, punishing realities of whaling. \nJos Mattingly Bio: \nJoe Mattingly is a docent at Falmouth Museums on the Green with a special interest in the history and culture of New England and Falmouth whaling. Joe has himself recently traveled several of the whaling grounds of the Pacific and once lived for two and a half years in the Republic of the Philippines as a U. S. Air Force officer following an initial assignment at Otis AFB here on the Cape. Joe is a native son of Maryland\, a long-time docent for Historic Annapolis\, and a retired lawyer. He and his wife returned part-time to the Cape in 2011 and have lived here permanently since 2019. Knowing what he does\, Joe still has difficulty understanding why a young man who went on a four-year whaling voyage to the Pacific in the 1800s would want to go again. \n  \nFair Winds and Following Seas: Uncovering History & Climate Clues from our Whaling Past \nTimothy D. Walker1\,2 and Caroline C. Ummenhofer2 \n1Department of History\, University of Massachusetts\, Dartmouth\, MA \n2Department of Physical Oceanography\, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution\, Woods Hole\, MA \nA trove of whaling ship logbooks spanning the period 1790 to 1910 exists in New England archives\, such as Falmouth Historical Society\, Martha’s Vineyard Museum\, Nantucket Historical Association\, New Bedford Whaling Museum\, and Providence Public Library. Whaling records also are also key source materials for the Sailing to Freedom project\, which highlights little-known stories of freedom-seeking by sea and describes the less-understood maritime side of the Underground Railroad. This new research\, directed and explained by Dr. Timothy Walker\, Professor of History at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth\, expands our understanding of how freedom was achieved by sea – and why the whaling industry is an important component of this emerging story. \nJointly with oceanographer Dr. Caroline Ummenhofer from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution\, the talk also highlights that whaling ship logbooks do not only hold value for historical\, genealogical\, economic\, and ecological research\, but can also be of use to climate scientists. From each logbook\, researchers can gather unique historical weather data from key climate zones covering Atlantic\, Pacific\, and Indian Ocean whaling grounds. Further\, unlike merchant or military vessels\, whaling ships did not follow established sea lanes\, but instead visited some of the most remote waters on earth\, opening a window into past climate conditions. The logbooks contain systematic daily weather observations\, such as wind strength/direction\, rainfall\, and cloudiness. The talk demonstrates how the historical records provide an important long-term context for changing weather patterns over the world’s oceans lacking instrumental observations during the 18th-19th centuries. It will discuss challenges and opportunities for climate research through data rescue and digitization of these under-utilized historical ship logbooks. \n\nBios: \nBio: Caroline Ummenhofer received a Joint Honours B.Sc. in Marine Biology and Physical Oceanography from Bangor University\, UK\, and a PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of New South Wales\, Australia\, specializing in climate modeling. She joined Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as faculty in 2012. Her research focuses on the ocean’s role in extreme events\, such as droughts and floods\, and their impact on human and natural systems. She has participated in art-science collaborations at museum exhibits about marine heatwaves and the oceanic water cycle\, and provided educational resources on extreme weather for K-12 schools serving students around the world. \nBio:  Dr. Timothy Walker (Hiram College\, 1986; MA/Ph.D. Boston University 2001)\, Professor of History at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth\, is a scholar of maritime history\, colonial overseas expansion\, and trans-oceanic slave trading. Walker is a guest investigator of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution\, a contributing faculty member of the Munson Institute of Maritime Studies\, affiliated faculty of the “Slavery North” initiative\, and Director of the National Endowment for the Humanities “Landmarks in American History” workshops series for middle- and high school teachers\, titled “Sailing to Freedom:  New Bedford and the Underground Railroad” (2011–2025).  In 2020\, Walker was appointed by the Governor of Massachusetts to serve on the Schooner Ernestina/Morrissey Advisory Board\, where he is the chair of the Educational Programming Committee.
