The Titanic disaster continues to inspire fascination more than a century later. If the tale of the doomed ocean liner haunts you, “” is opening October 21 at Maryland’s National Harbor, following successful runs in London and New York City.
You’ve heard the stories and seen the movie, but what may set this exhibition apart is its narrative focus on the 2,000-plus souls aboard, from third-class passengers to Captain Edward John Smith. The self-guided tour and accompanying audio guide aim to create a connection between visitors and those aboard the 1912 voyage through more than 200 personal belongings and never-before-seen objects.
“I’m a firm believer [that] if you can identify into somebody’s history, you can also be moved by this history,” Wetterholm said in a video promoting the exhibition. “So therefore, I think it’s a very human story that comes close to many people’s hearts.” “Titanic: The Exhibition” will be at National Harbor until December 10 and open Tuesday through Sunday. Ticket prices start at $29.50 for adults and $20.50 for children under 13. Several weekend dates have already sold out, so you’ll want to plan ahead.
