Albert Southwick news and events
In case you missed it, Albert Southwick appeared on “Coffee with Konnie” last month. It’s available for viewing at archive.org.
Also, if you missed the chance in December or January to meet Mr. Southwick and have some books signed, he’ll be doing another signing event at the Robert H. Goddard Library at Clark University on Saturday, May 17 from 12:00-2:00 p.m.
Stop by and meet Mr. Southwick. All of his newer books will be available for purchase (cash or check only), or bring along any Southwick books you may already own and get them personalized. For more information about Albert Southwick’s books, visit http://albertsouthwick.net
It’s Official
For the third year in a row, the readers of this blog (and, I suspect, dozens of my family members) have voted this blog the best local blog in Worcester Magazine’s annual Best of Worcester survey.
This is for Jeff and Cathy, who left us too early. Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you and miss you.
Worcester Historical Museum – Free this week
Worcester Historical Museum is FREE this week (including adults) and has a lot of great programs this week, including today’s activity on making a jet pack.
Higgins’ armor auction
While fans of historic arms & armor no longer have the Higgins Armory as a Mecca of sorts to see such things on display, some of the Higgins collection can now be seen at the Worcester Art Museum.
Some of the collection, however, will not be staying in Worcester. If you happen to be visiting London in May and have thousands of dollars burning a hole in your pocket, some of the armor from the collection will be auctioned off by Thomas Del Mar, Ltd., in association with Sotheby’s on May 7th.
