The Holiday Open House is Lowell’s main fundraiser and makes possible its extensive youth educational outreach programs, including the Apprentice Program for high school students interested in learning the art and craft of wooden boat building.
Founded by Simeon Lowell in 1793, Lowell’s is the oldest continuously operating wooden boat-building establishment in the United States, and the official birthplace of the fishing dory—the mainstay of New England’s legendary fishing industry. Visitors can explore the historic Shop with its numerous antique tools, well-seasoned posts and beams, and traditional skiffs and dories, all now decorated for the holiday season.
