History, artifacts, and shipwrecks lie in the depths of Lake Champlain, waiting to share their secrets and stories with the underwater archaeologists who dive down to explore. In 2025, Lake Champlain Maritime Museum is excited to introduce Talking Archaeology, a free evening talk series with Museum archaeologists and researchers. Learn about local history, archaeological discoveries, artifacts, and the unique stories that our team has uncovered over four decades of nautical archaeology and research.

Join us on June 26th for our guest lecture: The Steamboat Shipwrecks of Shelburne Shipyard by Carolyn Kennedy, PhD, Instructional Assistant Professor, Texas A&M University.

This talk will be held in the auditorium of the Hoehl Family Education and Visitor Center. It will last approximately 30-45 minutes with time for Q&A afterwards. Talking Archaeology is free to attend with registration.
