A black cat in the sailors' quarters? A rabbit's foot in their pockets? Find out why sailors were, and are still, very superstitious. We will discuss what superstitions are and if they are real, as well as exploring examples of good luck and bad luck from different types of ships.
Mystic Seaport Museum is the nation’s leading maritime museum. Founded in 1929 to gather and preserve the rapidly disappearing artifacts of America’s seafaring past, the Museum has grown to become a national center for research and education with the mission to “inspire an enduring connection to the American maritime experience.”
