Hurstwic Events

Hurstwic members provide demonstrations and presentations at museums, universities, schools, historical societies, and other cultural institutions.

Our Viking Age arms and armor demonstration was described in a news story by Chris Bergeron that appeared in the MetroWest Daily News on May 28, 2006. The story can be downloaded here (1MB pdf). A promotional video for our demonstration at Higgins Armory Museum is here on YouTube.

Currently scheduled public appearances include:

May 17	Demonstration of Viking Age arms, armor, and combat techniques at Higgins Armory Museum at 2PM
May 30	Hurstwic members demonstrate the use of Viking battleaxes on Modern Marvels, shown on the History Channel.
May 31	Demonstration of Viking Age arms, armor, and combat techniques at Higgins Armory Museum at 2PM

Normally, we present a live demonstration of Viking age combat techniques on the 3^rd (and where applicable, 5^th) Saturday of each month at 2PM at Higgins Armory Museum, part of the regular Weekend at Higgins program. Occasionally, scheduling changes prevent us from offering a demonstration, in which case we offer a presentation on Viking age weapons, instead.

Photos from some Hurstwic events can be seen in the Hurstwic photo album.
