The Museum of Old Newbury is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, founded in 1877 as the Historical Society of Old Newbury.
The museum holds numerous community icons in public trust. These icons tell the tales of our shared history, and the museum provides a learning center to experience the past firsthand.
Connect to the larger story of American history by supporting local history and celebrating the character of this community.
