SUMMARY:76 Days Adrift – Film Screening & Q&A with Executive Producer Robert Sennott
DESCRIPTION:From Academy Award–winning Executive Producer Ang Lee comes 76 Days Adrift—a gripping\, immersive documentary that tells the extraordinary survival story of Steven Callahan\, author of the New York Times bestseller Adrift: 76 Days Lost at Sea. \nOn the night of February 4\, 1982\, Callahan’s small vessel collided with a whale in the Atlantic Ocean. With only moments to react\, he escaped into a life raft with a basic survival kit—plunging into what would become 76 harrowing days alone at sea. Battling storms\, dwindling supplies\, and the vast\, unforgiving ocean\, Callahan was forced to confront both nature’s fury and his own deepest fears. \nDirected by Joe Wein with a haunting score by Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy)\, 76 Days Adrift is not only a survival story but also a meditation on human resilience and our profound connection to the sea. \nFilm Run Time: 95 minutes. The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Executive Producer Robert Sennott\, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the making of this powerful documentary.

SUMMARY:Ahab’s Head: American Vengeance
DESCRIPTION:Ahab’s Head: American Vengeance opens December 13 at the New Bedford Whaling Museum. The new installation is by Boston artist and sculptor Heidi Whitman. It is an immersive look at obsession\, power\, and the American whaling story. \nWhitman is known for intricate “mental maps” that explore emotion\, memory\, and place. She applies that style to Moby-Dick. She reimagines Ahab’s pursuit as a layered map of fixation. Paper\, shadow\, and structure trace themes of violence and mania in the novel and in America today. \nHer work has appeared at the Addison Gallery of American Art\, the Fitchburg Art Museum\, and the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art. It is held in museum\, public\, and corporate collections such as the Federal Reserve\, Boston Public Library\, and the McMullen Museum of Art. She received a Mass Cultural Council fellowship in 2021. \nAhab’s Head ties together maritime history\, literature\, and contemporary art\, presenting the story through a modern lens.
