Here is what is new and notable at the NIA!

Norwegian Americans in the Maritime Trades
The next NIA research project will feature Norwegian Americans working on the New York Harbor and in the many maritime trades. This will include dockbuilders, longshoremen, dredge workers, tugboat crewmen, harbor pilots, captains, fishermen and sailors. Please let us know if we have omitted any categories.
As you know, producing an exhibit like this can only happen if you supply the material. Greta Lafayette, Exhibit Chairman, is looking for photos, documents, letters, ship models, and other artifacts that will enhance the exhibit. Email her at dglafayettet@msn.com or write to Greta Lafayette, 7 Kellogg Street, Oyster Bay, New York 11771. Visit our Research Center page for further information.
