Coming Events in Oriental and in and near Pamlico County

Sailboat As Icon - O.History Museum

Not all the sailboats in Oriental are in the water – or even on the hard. Oriental’s History Museum featured exhibit this summer shows how the images of sailing vessels have been used to adorn everyday items — glasses, kitchenware, matchbox holders, ash trays, clocks, lamps.

Sailboats: A Cultural Icon, is drawn from Pat and Almira Dallas’s extensive sailboat motif collection, accumulated over several decades. Their collection also includes promotional items dating as far back as the 1930s.

Oriental’s History Museum is at 802 Broad Street. Hours are: Friday 12-3, Saturday 1-4, Sunday 1-4. Admission is always free, donations gratefully accepted. For more information contact museum@dockline.net
