The singular national event in the United States to honor the leaders of our maritime heritage community will be at the National Press Club in Washington D.C. on Wednesday, 27 April 2022. 

 

Our 2022 esteemed recipients:

• Lonnie G. Bunch III, Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution
• Kristen L. Greenaway, President & CEO, Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum
• Dr. David F. Winkler, Naval Historical Foundation Historian

 

America’s Ambassador of Yachting, Gary Jobson, will serve as the Master of Ceremonies. Presentations will be made by Her Excellency Rosemary Banks, Ambassador of New Zealand to the United States and VADM Sean Buck, USN, (invited) Superintendent of the US Naval Academy.

 

The National Maritime Awards Dinner draws leaders from across the country – Senators and Congressmen; boat builders; maritime artists and authors; maritime industry executives; sea explorers and yachtsmen; military sea services leaders; and maritime educators. It will be a wonderful evening uniting all those who love the sea to honor those who serve it.

 

The gala is hosted by the National Maritime Historical Society, the voice of America’s maritime heritage for almost 60 years. We invite you to join us and support the work of the Society. To register, please visit www.seahistory.org/washington2022 or contact me.

 

Sincerely,

 

Wendy Paggiotta

Vice President
