Volunteers have fun greeting visitors and serving (and eating) ice cream during an exhibition opening reception at the Society's Museum of New Hampshire History.

Help Preserve and Share New Hampshire History

The New Hampshire Historical Society is the state's premier organization preserving and sharing Granite State history. Our museum and library offer the most extensive collection of resources and materials related to New Hampshire history that can be found anywhere.

Whatever the question, whatever the need, if it's about New Hampshire, past or present, we're here to help find the answer. And, you can help.

Whether you have a few hours a month or lots of time, the New Hampshire Historical Society offers you the opportunity to explore and share your interests and skills.
