GRAFTON: The Grafton Historical Society resumes its public open house museum hours starting Sunday afternoon, August 7th from 2:00 PM until 4:00 PM. Museum open house hours continue each Sunday afternoon during the month of August. The museum was closed during the month of July while for renovations to One Grafton Common.
The Historical Society museum is currently featuring exhibits on Grafton’s role in the Civil War and the history of the railroad depot area of North Grafton. Experienced Historical Society guides are available doing each Sunday afternoon open house to answer questions.
“We’re looking forward to welcoming everyone back to visit the museum now that the building renovations that affect us have been completed.” noted Grafton Historical Society President Linda Casey.

The office and museum are located in the lower level of the Grafton Town House. The Historical Society is managed by a twelve member volunteer board of directors, along with a core of dedicated volunteers. Educational programs are held September through May.
