Exhibit will remain open until Memorial Day weekend next year (2024). "Steam and Splendor: Treausures from the Ocean Liner and Cruise Ship Emphemera Collection" is staged aboard the Gould Eddy gallery aboard the Museum’s elegant 1898 Victorian-era steam ferryboat Berkeley.

Visitors to the new exhibit will learn how passengers chose these destinations, purchased tickets, what they packed for their voyage, what they ate, where they slept and dined, and how they passed their time on board. Exhibit entry is free with general admission. General admission self-guided tickets are $20.00 for adults, $15.00 for seniors/active military and ages 13-17 and $10 .00 for youth ages 12 and under.
