SUMMARY:2026 Winter Wildlife Eagle Cruises on RiverQuest
DESCRIPTION:NEW DATE ADDED: Don’t miss the final Winter Wildlife Eagle Cruise of the season on Saturday\, March 28th! \nExperience the beauty and solitude of the lower Connecticut River during this wonderful time of year! It is so different than it is any other time of the year. There are no other vessels on the water\, and with no leaves on the trees\, our wildlife viewing is easy and fun. \nAs the river\, lakes and ponds to our north freeze\, Eagles and others make their way to the lower CT River for their favorite food – FISH. Join us on this approximately 2 hour “on-the-water” cruise to search for eagles and other winter wildlife. In the past we have spotted up to a record 46 eagles\, 3 types of grebes\, fox\, 3 types of swans\, 3 types of mergansers\, many different gulls\, loons\, golden eagle\, coyote\, deer\, many hawk species\, 3 types of seals\, and even a bobcat. We will have Naturalists on board to narrate and make sure you don’t miss a thing! \nRiverQuest has a heated cabin\, but we suggest that you dress in warm layers since the best views will be from the open decks. Don’t forget your camera and binoculars! …No binoculars? No worries\, we have plenty on board for you to borrow! We will also provide complimentary coffee and tea. \nCruises start Friday February 13th continuing through March 28th. \nAll Passengers – $50 \nAges 10+ only. \nBook Online Now! \n  \nFridays: \n\n10:00am – 12:00pm\n12:30pm – 2:30pm\n\nSaturdays & Sundays: \n\n9:00am – 11:00am\n11:30am – 1:30pm\n2:00pm – 4:00pm\n\nWednesdays\, March 11th & 18th \n\n11:30am – 1:30pm

The Lay Home\, located just up the street from the Museum building\, is a deeply historic property with centuries of stories to tell. In celebration of recent renovations to the Lay Home\, the Museum is hosting a full day of opportunities to enjoy and explore this cornerstone of Essex. \nAt 10:00 am\, local yoga instructor Hayley Cann will lead a guided yoga session in the Lay Home’s multipurpose room. Beginners are encouraged to attend! Please bring your own yoga mat. \nFollowing yoga\, there will be a 30-minute guided house tour at 11:00 am\, led by the Museum’s Executive Director\, Elizabeth Kaeser. This program will act as a preview for future Lay Home tours and will explore the process behind telling the story of a building with rich\, layered history. During the Open House from 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm\, additional 30-minute guided house tours will take place. \nAt 5:00 pm\, the multipurpose room will host a musical performance by Ben Cosgrove\, a traveling composer-performer whose music explores themes of landscape\, place\, and environment. As the Museum’s new Artist-in-Residence supported by grants funds from the Wolf Kahn Foundation\, Ben will create music inspired by the Connecticut River over the next year. This concert provides an opportunity for Ben to share his existing music and get to know members of the community. Ben will be present in the Lay Home before his performance begins\, so make sure to stop by and chat! \n  \nHayley Cann is a 200-hour certified yoga teacher specializing in Vinyasa and Hatha flow with an emphasis on rest\, restoration\, and mindful alignment. A former athlete\, she found yoga through injury and a shift toward gentler\, more intentional movement. Her teaching invites students to slow down\, reconnect to breath\, and support the nervous system while building ease and awareness in the body. Outside of teaching\, Hayley enjoys time in nature\, especially swimming and being in the water\, where she feels deeply grounded and restored. \n  \n  \nDescribed by the Boston Globe as “a sonic plein-air painter… [using] his piano as a paintbrush\,” Ben Cosgrove has performed in every U.S. state except for Delaware\, collaborated with groups ranging from rock bands to research scientists\, contributed music to several radio and film projects (including the recent Ken Burns documentary The American Buffalo)\, and held residencies and fellowships with institutions including NASA\, Acadia National Park\, White Mountain National Forest\, Isle Royale National Park\, Harvard University\, Middlebury College\, the New England National Scenic Trail\, the Schmidt Ocean Institute\, the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife & Fish Refuge\, and the Sitka Center for Art & Ecology.
