 usic group from the Port Townsend\, WA. Its five members collectively 
 bring together decades of experience in maritime music and transform i
 t into a rich\, dynamic musical experience. Whether it's 'a cappella' 
 shanty working songs or instrumented sea ballads\, their strong voices
  and multi-part harmonies combine to capture the heritage and soul of 
 these work songs that once echoed across Port Townsend's Victorian wat
 erfront during the golden age of sail.\nThe name Quimper's Watch is in
  honor of Spanish naval officer Manuel Quimper Benítez del Pino (1757
  - 1844). In 1790\, as captain of the sloop Princessa Real\, Quimper i
 s credited as being the first person of European descent to explore an
 d chart the north and south coasts of the Strait of Juan de Fuca\, whe
 re he named the peninsula on which Port Townsend sits. Among his many 
 accomplishments he was a gifted maritime cartographer\, author and poe
 t\, making him a fitting namesake for the group.\nTrinity United Metho
 dist Church is located at 609 Taylor Street\, across from the Communit
 y Center\, in Uptown.  Attendees should plan on arriving early – do
 ors will open at 6:30. Masks are encouraged for in-person attendees.
