August Business After Hours

Description

The staff of the Essex Historical Society and Ship Building Museum invite you to come visit this historic location.
The Historical Society began in 1937, committed to collecting and preserving the unique history of the Village of Essex. The Museum was established in 1976 as part of the town's observation of the American Revolutionary Bicentennial.  The Museum maintains one of the best maritime collections in the region.

Located in the heart of Essex, Massachusetts, the Museum is adjacent to an acre of land set aside in 1668 “for a yard to build vessels and employing workmen for this end” and is integral to the town's historic character, scenic vista and central river basin. 
Come learn about the history of this most wonderful location, while meeting and networking with other area Businesspeople.
