Join us on a virtual tour of the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter LILAC, America’s oldest lighthouse tender, with Museum Director Mary Habstritt and Operations Director Luke Gayford. She will discuss LILAC’s historic and vital work of tending lighthouses and buoys for the U.S. Lighthouse Service and Coast Guard from 1933 to 1972; the non-profit’s efforts to restore the ship to run on her rare and intact steam engines; and the cultural and educational programs we offer now that she is operated as a museum.
