Another Oyster Festival is in the books

October 23, 2024

The History Center’s 50th Annual Oyster Festival was Oct. 20, and more than 1,600 people attended the event to slurp oysters, listen to live music, bring the kids for games, crafts and demonstrations and enjoy a great day with amazing October weather. We returned to the Colonial Complex this year, and invited folks into our new museum. Photographer Randy Flaum was on hand to chronicle the day. You can see a gallery of his photos here.
