“The Bark Sarah and her Maker”

Learn the story behind this intricate large plank-on-frame ship model, a recreated “Tall Ship” in miniature. Find out about Winthrop Taylor Hodges, the man who spent ten years building this ship in model form based on a youthful memory. See rare photographs of the oceangoing Sarah, upon which he sailed in 1887.

Opening on Sunday afternoon, April 9, 2006 after the Annual Meeting in the Hodges Reference Room
