SUMMARY:Skywatching: Human-Bird Relationships Through Time feat. Dr. Bonnie Newsom\, Angi King Johnson\, and Olivia Olson (Schoodic Institute's Summer Lecture Series)
DESCRIPTION:Join us in person at Schoodic Institute or online via Zoom on Tuesday\, September 8 at 7:00pm for Skywatching: Human-Bird Relationships Through Time\, our 2026 Summer Lecture Series closing event featuring Dr. Bonnie Newsom (Associate Professor of Anthropology and Associate Faculty in the Climate Change Institute at the University of Maine)\, Angi King Johnson (interpretive naturalist and raptor specialist)\, and Olivia Olson (M.S. University of Maine and Public Programs and Volunteer Manager at Lake Champlain Maritime Museum). \nAs the autumn winds increase and the days shorten\, Acadia experiences waves of migrating sea and shore birds\, warblers\, and raptors\, an annual phenomenon that provides an opportunity to consider human relationships with birds. In this panel discussion\, Dr. Bonnie Newsom will present on Wabanaki cultural associations with birds. These stories are grounded in gifts and creations Wabanaki ancestors left behind in shell mounds\, and Olivia Olson will share her analysis of bird-related materials recovered from cultural heritage spaces in and beyond Acadia. Angi King Johnston\, lead volunteer for the Cadillac Mountain Hawk Watch\, will make connections from past to present\, describing trends observed over the last thirty years of watching the skies from the highest mountain on the East Coast. \nRegister online at https://schoodicinstitute.org/event/summer-lecture-series-skywatching/ \nSchoodic Institute’s 2026 Summer Lecture Series events are free\, thanks to support from our generous sponsor\, Bar Harbor Bank & Trust.

SUMMARY:Lecture with Capt. Dennis Dorsey: “The Burning of the Royal Tar\, 1836”
DESCRIPTION:The 1836 burning of the steamship Royal Tar in Penobscot Bay became one of Maine’s most remarkable maritime disasters. In this illustrated presentation\, Capt. Dennis Dorsey will discuss the findings of an eighteen-year investigation into the vessel\, its operation\, the people and animals aboard\, its final voyage\, the development of the fire\, rescue efforts\, conflicting witness accounts\, and the events that followed. \nThe presentation also examines how archival records\, contemporary newspaper accounts\, maritime evidence\, and other surviving information were compared and evaluated to reconstruct the circumstances surrounding the disaster. Dorsey’s investigation culminated in his recently published book\, SJ23 Totality of the Circumstances\, The Burning of the Royal Tar\, 1836. \nMore info and a link to livestream will be shared soon. \nThis event will take place in the Mitchell Room\, at 17 School Street.
