The first painting will depict Blackbeard’s ship Queen Anne’s Revenge as she may have appeared when she ran aground in Beaufort Inlet back in 1718. The second will depict the tall ship HMS Bounty throughout her life, including her appearances in Disney’s “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies and her unfortunate demise off North Carolina’s coast. Watch these oil paintings come to life while Nyzio recounts her historic research, aesthetic choices and lessons learned along the way. 252-728-7317.

Great 4th Race
This annual Independence Day race, held on a weekend close to the 4th, is an event of the North Carolina Maritime Museum’s chapter of the Traditional Small Craft Association and is open to all traditionally rigged sailing craft. It is, in spirit, a reenactment of the historic voyages made by small boats to carry news of the signing of the Declaration of Independence to the communities along the outer banks of North Carolina.
The “Great Fourth Race” is really a rally of sorts. The varying speeds of the boats participating dictate shorter legs and regrouping the fleet to keep the boats closer together. The course is announced Saturday by the Race Committee to suit wind and weather conditions. The course is designed to have a race that lasts between 4 and 8 hours, covers between 6 and 20 miles, and fosters fun competition. The start and finish line for the race is right off the dock of the Harvey Smith Watercraft Center.
The start of this race is informal but the spectacle of the fleet together in Taylors Creek can be enjoyed between 9:00 and 10:00 a.m. To register, or for additional information, contact Brent Creelman at the Friends at 252-728-1638 or William Prentice at the NC Maritime Museum at 252-728-6673.

Beaufort Pirate Invasion
At the Beaufort Historic Site in the center of downtown, an authentic Pirate Encampment is active on Friday evening and all day Saturday with real Brethren of the Sea and wenches of a fascinating variety. Dinner and grog is served here Friday and Saturday night by ticket. Saturday beginning at 1:30 PM, the Beaufort Pirate Invasion occurs! It begins with the Pirates Procession along the downtown waterfront to Pollock Street where, in 1747, the town militia met the long boat of Spanish pirate invaders set on pillaging the town. At 1:30 PM, cannons will be firing on the town, muskets on land will be countering, and the melee will begin! Following the Invasion, there will be a public trial and other occurrences appropriate to a Pirate Invasion, exactly as it was in 1747. The Beaufort Pirate Invasion is an event of the Beaufort Business Association.
