The MOBY DICK Marathon returns and will move to different Sag Harbor locations during the weekend. Join us at the Museum on Saturday, June 8th from 10:00am to 12:45pm.
In 1983, Canio Pavone started the yearly Marathon to celebrate Sag Harbor's seafaring history and its literary tradition. The Marathon ran for several years at the bookshop, in the 1990s it was held at the Whaling Museum for a few years, and then at John Jermain Memorial Library in the early 2000s.
