March 26th, 2020 Bermuda Calendar Update

Good Morning, Bermuda! 

We hope you are keeping well and taking the necessary precautions to stay safe and healthy during this time. Because there are no new events to report on, this week’s post is going to be a little bit different. Below you will find a number of suggestions of businesses to patronise as well as online entertainment and activities to try while practicing social distancing. We hope you find this information useful and welcome you to let us know if you are offering any products or services that we can share with our audience by emailing info@BermudaEvents.com. Be sure to follow us on social media as well for daily updates. 

 

Restaurant Take-out & Delivery 

While restaurants are closed for dining, luckily there’s still the option for take-out. Many places are now offering delivery or curb-side pick-up so you don’t have to leave your house or car. The Bermuda Chamber of Commerce has put together a list of restaurants offering curb-side delivery which you can view by clicking on the image to the left. Please note that the Washington Mall has since closed so a few places on this list may no longer apply, however the Cottage Cafe & Bistro is still operational, and offering delivery between Smith’s and Warwick as well. While the Hamilton Princess Hotel & Beach Club has temporarily closed all their restaurants, Marcus’ is still offering takeout which you can order for delivery through the Sargasso Sea App. This is a super handy app to have on your phone during this time, offering delivery from countless eateries island-wide, which you can download through the Google Play Store. The Loren’s Pink Beach Club has also adjusted their services to offer delivery and curb-side pick-up only. You can view the full menu here or contact 293-1666 for more information.

Whether cultural, familial, social or political, Bermuda has links with Latin and North America, the Caribbean, Africa, UK and Europe. The National Museum of Bermuda invites you to join them as they uncover these links and the global forces throughout the Atlantic World that helped shape Bermuda as we know it, in a special four-part lecture series titled Bermuda in the Atlantic World, starting with The Early Atlantic Age (1250-1609) Why and How Did We Get Here? on Thursday, March 12th. 

The first lecture will begin Bermuda’s story in 1250, with the construction of the Atlantic System that led to the Island’s discovery, the arrival of the first man of African descent, Venturilla, and the Sea Venture wreck. Bermudian historian Dr. Clarence Maxwell will explore the historical context that put Bermuda on the map.

The lecture is from 5:30pm until 7pm in the North Hall at Bermuda College, and is a component of NMB’s Moving the Needle Teacher Professional Development Programme, endorsed by the Department of Education.

Admission is free to the public. 

Dates are yet to be confirmed for part 2,3 & 4 of this lecture series. Stay tuned or visit www.NMB./lecture/ for updates.
