A Deeper Dive! - Beacon of Hope

Angelica Harris and Adrian Saker from the Friends of the Titanic Lighthouse will take us back in time as they share their research and work to keep alive the memories of those lost on the Titanic. Harris will focus on her research journey to find her uncles, Alberto and Sebastiano Peracchio who were crew members in the A' La Carte Restaurant on Titanic. She'll discuss her findings for the book, Titanic-The Brothers Peracchio-Two Boys and a Dream. Saker will share the story of the construction of the Titanic Memorial Lighthouse, known as a beacon of hope, and the history that finds it in its current New York City location. Registration required to attend. 

A Deeper Dive! is our speaker series to accompany the Titanic exhibit, shown throughout the house from April-September. In this series hosted by museum staff and Titanic experts (and others!), we'll discuss the stories within the larger story of the Titanic disaster.
