“Murder Through a New Lens” is a limited engagement combination walking tour and photography workshop offered on April 6, 7, 13, and 14. Join one of our local tour guides and a local photographer for a fascinating exploration of Salem’s most notorious murder. The death of aged sea Captain Joseph White in 1830 was not just a personal tragedy to the families involved. It was a sign of the times that Salem’s identity as a wealthy and successful seaport was sinking into the horizon. The story of the murder became an international sensation and influenced authors Edgar Allen Poe and Nathaniel Hawthorne. Bring your camera or your camera phone.
