(BYOB—Bring Your Own Boots, it’s mud season!!)

Join us at the Meeting House in the Village on April 20 when New London Barn artistic director Keith Coughlin and board president Tom DeMille will be on hand for a sneak peek at the upcoming 84th season at the New London Barn. The fun starts at 7pm.

Curtains Up at the New London Historical Society has become a tradition unto itself. It is the first event of the year for the Barn Playhouse.

“We cannot wait to share the fun and excitement of the 2016 Season with our many friends," said DeMille.

Get the inside scoop on what's in store this year: songs, scenes, backstage tidbits, and insider stories. This very popular event was packed last year. Be sure to get there early!


Cost: $4.00 Member/$6.00 Non-Member.



​The New London Historical Society, Village and Museum, is seeking young artists for its “Young at Art” Show from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, May 15 at the New London Historical Society, Little Sunapee Road in New London. The “Young at Art” Show has been a biennial event since the 1990’s.
The “Young at Art” Show Committee is accepting entries from students in grades kindergarten through high school. The art show is an opportunity for young artists to showcase their artistic talents, as well as the opportunity to publicly display their work. Each artist may submit one piece of artwork in the following categories: drawing, painting, photography and three-dimensional. Entry forms must be submitted by May 4.
Cash prizes will be awarded for first, second and third place in each grade category. The awards ceremony will be at 3:30 p.m. Winning entries will be exhibited at the Tracy Memorial Library in New London and at Hospital Days in August.
The New London Historical Society, founded in 1954, is a not-for-profit volunteer organization committed to preserving and presenting the early history of the New London, N.H., area. The society’s collection includes a village of 19th century buildings, more than 24 horse-drawn vehicles and thousands of other artifacts reflecting everyday life in rural New Hampshire.
