Strawberry Festival
The 3rd Annual Strawberry Festival at the New London Historical Society was great fun for all. June 24 was a beautiful Saturday afternoon and over 200 visitors enjoyed the village buildings, exhibits, and museum, as well as strawberry treats and activities! Thank you to all the volunteers who made the day a success: bakers, ice cream makers, the NL Barn Jr Intern Company, SkyeView Farm, Bill Burris and his games, our distinguished panel of Berry Delicious judges at right, and our festival chair, Jeff Garzia and his family. And thanks to all our visitors who made the Village a "strawberry stop" that day.  Docent Linda Jaggard leading a tour.
Plan to Visit New London Historical Village this Season
We are open every Sunday 1-4 pm. Lots of folks have been here already!! Take a tour with one of our renowned docents and be sure to visit the Maude Swift Gallery in July to view the exhibit Homefront: New London in the Civil War 1861-1865, focused on a Civil War era parlor and the written correspondence between those at home and the troops on active duty. Dr. Anna Littlefield's portrait of Ira Bragg, Civil War soldier, is featured in the exhibit.
