Name: The Tower Clocks of Newburyport

Event Description:

In an era of the Internet, smart phones, and digital watches, we take “time” for granted. Yet, historically, our tower clocks were key to shipping and industry – critical for Newburyport ship captains to calibrate their navigation, and the reference for factory schedules, because "time is money." 

Join local historian Jack Santos to learn more about the Tower Clocks of Newburyport, and the people that made them possible, from an era when, literally and figuratively, time was at the center of our community.
