Dear Friends of the Shelter Island Historical Society -
The past year has paved the way for us to be our most innovative in providing creative and meaningful experiences through our stimulating exhibits and programs. For students, lifelong learners, and families, the Shelter Island Historical Society has helped reconnect us with each other and our historical roots.
We are looking forward to seeing you here for another exciting season of exhibitions, presentations, and educational programs. What better reason to make a year end gift to support us? Together we’ll cultivate and enrich the programs, so we continue to meet our community’s ever-changing needs and curiosity.
Thank you in advance for your gift.
With Gratitude,
Mary Fran Gleason
President, Board of Directors
