Many stories of Cape Island and the surrounding area's economy are in whaling and farming and while new industries have evolved since then, that heritage is celebrated today. Hear how whalers centuries ago eked out a dangerous but lucrative living near Town Bank and how the area's rich farming heritage continues to be a source of tremendous community pride. Learn about the Union Bethel community in 1831 in which Black residents thrived and the diverse community that continues to contribute to the vibrancy of island life today.
Begins and ends at the Ocean Street trolley stop. Allow ample time to find parking. We cannot guarantee large parties will sit together unless they plan to arrive early to secure seats.
