Life Aboard Ship Means Going at Sea

When nature calls, you must go! But where do you go while at sea? You may be surprised by the historical practices of something so basic as using the bathroom when it comes to being on board a ship. Join Associate Curator of Education Christine Brin for an informative look at the evolution of the ship’s head (bathroom). She will cover historic sailing vessels, ironclad warships, and submarines related to this important aspect of maritime life you may never have considered.
This program is part of the museum’s Maritime Heritage Lecture Series, informal lectures focused on North Carolina’s rich maritime history, coastal environment, and culture. Programs are offered most Thursdays at 11 a.m. The lectures are currently held in the Fort Macon Coastal Education Center. Admission is free, and registration is not required.
