SUMMARY:1926: A Year in the Life of Hammond and His Castle
DESCRIPTION:1926: A Year in the Life of Hammond and His Castle\n\nWednesday\, September 30th\n\n5:30 pm 7:30 pm\n\nEvening program:\n\n5:30 pm 6:00 pm Networking\n\n6:00 pm 7:30 pm Presentation & Discussion\n\nLight refreshments will be served.\n\nOne hundred years ago\, John Hays Hammond Jr. embarked on one of the most ambitious projects of his life: building Hammond Castle Museum. But why construct a brand new medieval-inspired castle after already transforming his previous home into a castle-like residence? And why was Hammond absent during the first year of construction\, entrusting oversight of the project to one of the Hammond Research Laboratory's engineers?\n\nJoin us as Collections Director Beth Welin takes us on a fascinating look back at 1926 as we explore the personal\, professional\, and historical events that shaped Hammond's life during this pivotal year. Discover how construction of his extraordinary home and laboratory unfolded\, the people who helped bring his vision to life\, and the remarkable story behind one of Cape Ann's most iconic landmarks.\n\nMuseum members and VIP guests enjoy complimentary admission.\n\nA $15 fee applies to the general public.\n\nReservations are required. Space is limited.
