Opening in mid-September 2008
|
“Poor Boy to Rockefeller: Long Island Oysters
& Oystermen”
This exhibit explores the significant role the humble
oyster has played in the lives of Long Islanders over
the centuries.
The exhibit brings together historic objects and images
as it explores the biology, sociology, economics, geography
and history of this remarkable natural resource and
the industry it spawned. Included in the
presentation are the boats and tools of the oystermen
and processors; the pushcarts and gaily decorated barges
of the vendors; the elegant oyster forks and plates
of the high-end restaurants and Gold Coast mansions,
and a glimpse at what oystering meant to Long Islanders
a century ago.
Finally, the exhibit explores the plight of the oyster
today: struggling to make a comeback, and even doing
its part to clean our waters all by itself.
