Dear Members and Friends,

​2020 has been anything but normal. Here at the New London Historical Society we greatly missed seeing summer visitors and were disappointed having to cancel all of our planned summer events and programs. The safety of our volunteers and community were our primary concern, but that does not mean the decisions were made lightly.

As COVID-19 continues to present challenges, the Board of Directors is committed to finding creative ways to keep the New London Historical Society relevant to our community. We are working on educational programs that might allow students to learn about 19th century history remotely. And for those who are learning remotely and/or homeschooling, we hope to provide an opportunity for small field trips or walking tours when weather permits spring 2021.

Often out of great challenges, innovative alternatives are born. The NLHS Board of Directors is ever mindful of continuing to preserve our special history and collection while using this opportunity to consider new ways to interact with our community.

Be well,
​Rosanna Eubank-Long NLHS Board of Director President

​While we want to make sure your visit with us is enjoyable, informative, and memorable as possible, we have instituted new policies and procedures to try to keep our docents, visitors and collections safe, while limiting the spread of COVID-19.

At this time we are requiring face masks, encouraging hand washing and social distancing, and instituting cleaning protocols with both people and collections in mind.

We look forward to seeing you in the Village this season, where the staff, volunteers and board of directors are hard at work bringing exciting educational activities, while preserving New London’s history.

Join us anytime this Saturday, June 13th between 10am and 2pm.
We will have a list of task suitable for all ages! There are things to do inside and outside, so the weather won't deter us!
Snacks and drinks provided as well as hand sanitizer, masks and gloves.
