From Herreshoff to Hall Spars- Lecture Series

150 years of spar building in Bristol

Hall Spars & Rigging President and co-founder Eric Hall joins us to talk about the evolution of spar making in Bristol. He’ll present a strong case for Bristol as the cradle of spar innovation from HMCo in the 1880s to Hall Spars today, and he’ll share some of the cutting-edge work being done today by his company – not just in the marine space, but in the aerospace industry as well.

Refreshments provided by our Sponsors: Points East Magazine, Cisco Brewers, Triple Eight Distillery, Nantucket Vineyard, The Bay Magazine, Pure Insurance, Pella Windows, Bank Newport, and Brewers Yacht Yards.

Reception begins at 6pm; Lecture starts at 7pm.
