SUMMARY:“Hannah in Context: What Really Happened\, and Why Did it Matter?” Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Captain Michael Rutstein recounts the events leading to the battle between schooner Hannah and HMS Nautilus\, Oct. 1775. \n\n\n\n\nJoin Captain Michael Rutstein as he covers the events leading up to the famous battle between the armed American schooner Hannah and HMS Nautilus in October 1775. He will walk us step by step through the engagement and wrap up with the repercussions of this event and its impact on the course of the Revolution here on the North Shore. \nMichael Rutstein: After drafting and then reluctantly abandoning a business plan to create a replica of Hannah\, Rutstein commissioned local boatbuilder Harold Burnham to build a representation of the 1812 Salem privateer FAME in 2003. For 23 seasons\, FAME sailed out of Pickering Wharf in Salem to critical and popular acclaim. In April 2026\, FAME was sold to the Liberty Fleet of Tall Ships in Boston. \n\n\nWhile admission is free space is limited; registration is strongly encouraged. \nThis program is part of the Conflict & Community: Salem\, Essex County\, and the American Revolution lecture series. This series is a partnership between Essex Heritage and Salem Maritime National Historical Park and highlights the unique role of Essex County communities during the American Revolution.

SUMMARY:Critter Fest: The Ark
DESCRIPTION:The Ark is an improbable tale of the transcendent relationship between a people and their land\, as amid constant danger\, a Ukrainian family’s home transforms into a refuge for chickens\, donkeys\, horses\, emus and hundreds of displaced animals abandoned by war. \nZhenye and Anatoly Pilipenko’s dream of a quiet place in the country is shattered overnight as a Russian missile explodes over their house on the first night of war. As rockets fall and fires rage\, they face an impossible choice: flee the violence at their doorstep or stay and protect the home they dreamed of building for years. When a soldier on his way to the frontline asks the couple if they could care for his goats – all 37 of them – while he fights in the trenches; Practically overnight\, Anatoly an Zhenye’s home transforms into the largest animal sanctuary in Eastern Ukraine. From rescued chickens\, displaced donkeys\, wandering horses and even emus\, Anatoly and Zhenye risk their lives and livelihoods to rescue any part of Ukraine they can – including the wounded and defenseless animals scattered across the country from the war. \nTold primarily through verité\, amidst constant danger\, heartbreaking loss and improbably an inextinguishable reservoir of hope\, Zhenye and Anatoly’s sanctuary stands as a defiant testament to the unbreakable bond between a nation\, its people\, and the land they refuse to surrender.

SUMMARY:Critter Fest Closing Night Film: Unspoken Bond
DESCRIPTION:Unspoken Bond is a feature documentary that explores the deep connection between humans and animals through three touching stories demonstrating how animals enrich our lives beyond measure. \nShannon Dueck\, a top dressage rider\, grieves deeply after losing her Olympic-hopeful horse Angel to a severe injury. Yet\, she gradually finds her way back\, supported by her community and new equine friendships. \nNicole Navarro overcame 18 years of addiction to establish Pawsitive Beginnings Fox Sanctuary in the Florida Keys\, where rescued foxes from fur farms and the exotic pet trade now aid trauma survivors in their healing journey. \nJason Gaver\, a veteran dealing with PTSD and significant loss\, reconnects through Woodrow\, his service dog\, who helps him be present for his young daughter and reintegrate into everyday life. \nGuided by top experts\, the film delves into the science and soul of the human-animal bond — a relationship that provides unconditional acceptance\, healing\, and happiness.

SUMMARY:“American Admiralty Law in Salem and Boston\, 1800–1840”
DESCRIPTION:Judge William G. Young explores how Salem and Boston maritime conflicts (1800–1840) shaped early American admiralty law post Revolution. \nLearn about the establishment of American Admiralty Law in Salem and Boston following the American Revolution\, tracing how early 19th-century maritime conflicts in these port cities shaped the development of American jurisprudence. The lecture will examine how disputes over cargo\, salvage\, and prize cases during the period tested and refined the young nation’s legal system. Judge Young will also discuss the pivotal role played by Judge John Davis in establishing practical precedents for handling these cases — precedents that would go on to influence the broader framework of American admiralty law. \nAbout the Speaker: \nThe Honorable William G. Young has served as a Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts since 1985\, following eight years on the Massachusetts Superior Court. A graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Law School\, he served as a U.S. Army officer before beginning his legal career as law clerk to Chief Justice Raymond S. Wilkins of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court. He later practiced law with Bingham\, Dana & Gould and served as Special Assistant Attorney General and Chief Counsel to Governor Francis W. Sargent. An acclaimed teacher of evidence and trial advocacy\, Judge Young has taught at Harvard\, Boston College\, and Boston University. He is also a prolific legal scholar and the author of several influential works on evidence\, trial practice\, and federal jurisprudence.
