"Shipwreck: Discovering Lost Treasures,” uses the lens of several wrecks between 1660 and 1984 to explore the impact of nautical disasters on local people and places. Broken vessels held gold and jewels, along with other treasures — items prized by early pioneers. Decayed hulls have since evolved into recreational destinations for divers, and several abandoned ships have been re-purposed as artificial reefs that also support the marine ecosystem. Compelling stories, harrowing tales and the traditional riches of shipwrecks will redefine your understanding of “treasure” at the Johnson History Museum.
