Preview Party
Be among the first to experience our exciting new exhibition “Cabot Lyford: Winds of Change” and enjoy an exclusive preview of the artist’s groundbreaking work. Lyford is the visionary behind some of Portsmouth’s most iconic public art, like My Mother, The Wind on Four Tree Island, and in this exhibition, we’ll dive deep into his innovative career and his commitment to advocacy.
and Silent Auction
This evening also features a silent auction with incredible items, with all proceeds directly benefiting the Historical Society’s vital programs. Your participation helps fund initiatives like our beloved 3rd-grade history program, the community-driven Gingerbread Exhibition, and the preservation of our historic properties.
