About the Event
Join us at the Westhampton Free Library to learn how the Southampton History Museum is expanding our 2016 exhibit, Southampton Under Siege, to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence in 2026. Who were Southampton's figures in America's fight for independence? What risks did they take? How did their actions ripple through the pages of history? Generously hosted by our friends and colleagues at the Greater Westhampton Beach Historical Museum and Westhampton Free Library.
