Join Us for the FREE Hands-On History Fair!
Get ready to step into the past at the Hands-On History Fair on May 31st from 10am–3pm at the Hillsborough Visitor Center grounds! This FREE community event brings history to life with fun, family-friendly, and interactive experiences.
Meet local preservationists, artisans, and history-minded organizations as they showcase the many ways we keep the past alive—from restored artifacts and tools of the trade to hands-on activities designed for all ages. Whether you’re a history buff or just curious, there’s something for everyone to explore!
This event is held in conjunction with our Past Meets Present Preservation Tour. The Past Meets Present Preservation tour is a paid self-guided tour where participants will be able to explore inside 7 different preserved historic buildings in Hillsborough.
