MedwayArea.org happily announces that the bi-annual Port Medway History Show is back!

The show is a celebration of the history of the Medway River area from Port Medway up river to Mill Village, Charleston and Greenfield, spanning the approximate 10,000 years from the retreat of the glaciers to the dawn of the space age. Now in its fifth year, this major exhibit features music, artifacts, photos, maps, videos, films, tours and more!

For 2015, the show is titled
The Medway Area Through Time – 10’000 Years of Connections

In addition to an amazing collection of historical photographs and documents, there will be videos profiling the Old Cemetery as well as current photos of Port and the Cemetery taken from high above by a drone camera … state of the art – you might call this “From Stone Age to Space Age”.

Of special interest, we will premiere the trailer to our Earth Station Satellite video…currently in production, featuring interviews with employees who worked at the former Teleglobe station in Charleston.

The Port Medway History Show opens with live music and a reception on 17-July-2015 from 5pm-8pm and then continue on 18-Jul  & 19-Jul from 10am until 6pm.

It’s a fascinating look at life along the Medway in the previous century until today. You won’t be disappointed, so please come down to the Warehouse building in Port Medway Lighthouse Park.
