Upcoming Events
Founders Day Event Postponed
Due to the forecast of inclement weather, the Hampton Falls Historical Society has made the difficult decision to cancel Founders Day: A Journey Through Our History, scheduled for Saturday, September 26th.
This means that both the Trolley Tours and the Founders Patio Dedication will not take place as planned; both events will be rescheduled for May, 2027.
We are very disappointed that we will not be sharing this special day with our community this fall. We have been looking forward to celebrating Hampton Falls’ history, honoring our founders, and dedicating the new Founders Patio with all of you.
Thank you to everyone who registered for a trolley tour and to everyone who planned to join us for the Founders Patio Dedication. We truly appreciate your enthusiasm and support of the Historical Society.
Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to see you at the Museum soon!
