Description
New Bedford Fishing Heritage Center is pleased to announce the return of its Dock-u-mentary series, hosted in partnership with New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park. Dock-u-mentaries is a free film series hosted at the National Park auditorium at 33 William Street in downtown New Bedford on every third Friday at 7:00pm from October through April. These films explore a variety of themes and topics related to the commercial fishing industry and the working waterfront.
On Friday, October 18, we will be screening the documentary film Saving the Ocean with Carl Safina: Swordfish. For a few weeks of the year, fishermen from the remote villages of southern Nova Scotia take their small boats a hundred miles offshore to the fishing grounds of Georges Bank. Join host Carl Safina on the swordfish grounds with Larry, skipper of the Four Ladies, and his crew Hoss and Shawn. From Saving the Ocean with Carl Safina.
