2010 Fundraising Dinner

Kodiak Maritime Museum's 8th annual Tastes and Tales of the Sea fundraising event was a great success. More than 125 people came out for the May 1st dinner featuring a Seafarers Menu by Chef Joel Chenet and a talk by Tim Smith, who shared photos and stories of growing up on the F/V Evangel as it traveled around Kodiak Island in the 50s and 60s. Many of the images he shared at the dinner are online at his website here.
