1920s Historic Exhibition, Camden Shipyard & Maritime Museum

Camden, NJ

The Camden Shipyard and Maritime Museum occupies the campus of the former Church of Our Saviour in the Waterfront South neighborhood of Camden, New Jersey. Metcalfe worked with the museum to transform the sanctuary into an exhibit filled with treasured pieces of historic maritime memorabilia. The rectory was repurposed for artist-in-residence housing on the upper levels and a recreated 1920s shipyard worker’s house on the first floor. All renovations were completed to meet federal historic restoration standards.
