The new exhibit "Celebrating the Sea: Exploring the Maritime Museum of San Diego’s Hidden Collections" is now open the Compass Gallery on the ferryboat Berkeley. Entry to the new exhibit is included with general admission. October 2024 through July 2025 visitors can revel in a rare and rich tapestry of treasured maritime-themed art and admire notable artists’ work, embracing the nautical world of breathtaking coasts, artifacts & treasured ships. According to Maritime Museum of San Diego Librarian, and exhibit Curator, Kevin Sheehan, Ph.D., “It is estimated that globally less than five percent of museum collections are on display at any one time. That means most of the art and artifacts conserved in museums throughout the world are held in storage. This is not surprising. Putting items on view can require significant planning, and exhibit space in museums is often relatively limited.” According to Raymond Ashley, Ph.D., K.C.I., President/CEO of the Maritime Museum of San Diego, “Here at the Maritime Museum of San Diego our largest objects – the ships themselves – are very much in the public eye. But what of the smaller items – the ones that don’t necessarily fit into a themed exhibit? Our new exhibit, Celebrating the Sea, brings to light some of this hidden collection.” Visit: sdmaritime.org/ Maritime Museum of San Diego on Facebook / Instagram
