Annual Conference
The NC Maritime History Council hosts an annual conference in the fall of each year. Since 1990, the NCMHC Conference has brought together new and veteran maritime historians to highlight historical and archaeological research and activities throughout the region. The conference provides our members with fantastic networking opportunities with academic researchers, professionals, state and federal agencies, as well as the next generation of students engaging with maritime history.
