Titanic: West Michigan Connections

The Gilmore Car Museum presents “Titanic: West Michigan Connections,” with historian Jay Follis. In his program, Follis will display many rare and authentic Titanic and White Star Line items and present the little-known stories of the several Michigan passengers aboard the famous liner; how, within weeks of the sinking, a college student launched a now-century-old publishing company with his book about the Titanic; and how a hometown hero met the rescue ship Carpathia in New York Harbor and led the Senate investigation into the disaster.
