SUMMARY:Lecture: Exploring Spain’s Legacy in the Salish Sea
DESCRIPTION:Santa Saturnina in Boundary Pass by Gordon Miller. \n  \nThe threat of “foreign” invasion into “their” seas in the wake of the tumultuous fur trade prompted Spain to explore in Northwest Pacific waters\, at the farthest reaches of their American empire\, from 1774 until 1796.  \nFollowing the Spaniards departure from the scene their explorations have gone largely unsung. Few people now know the stories behind the many Spanish place names still found on our coastal features. \nThis evening presentation will provide a short discussion illustrated by the work of three well known maritime artists and an exquisite new model of the Spanish schooner\, Santa Saturnina produced by Comox master model builder Bruce Ellis. \nSpeaker Kim Davies has a passion for history and since retiring he has been able to pursue Pacific Northwest coastal history full time and meet with historians and artists on various maritime history projects. \nAdmission to the lecture is $5 per historical society member; $6 for non-members. Advance tickets are recommended. \nFor more information\, or to purchase tickets over the phone\, call 250-334-0686 ext. 2.  The Courtenay and District Museum is located at 207 Fourth Street in downtown Courtenay.
