Pack up the kids, forget the snow and join us at the Museum for this family friendly screening of the 1937 classic Captains Courageous, based on the novel by Rudyard Kipling. Refreshments will be served. Free for Museum members, youth ages 18 and under or with Museum admission.
This coming of age tale recounts the journey of 15-year-old Harvey Cheyne, the spoiled son of a wealthy railroad magnate, who is washed overboard during a transatlantic crossing. Rescued by a Gloucester schooner off the coast of Newfoundland, the boy endures a three-month voyage in which he learns to love the sea and eventually earns his place among the crew.
