As America prepares to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, every town, village, hamlet, historical society, civic group, school, library, and neighborhood organization across Suffolk County has been invited to take part in the planning and celebration. Whether through parades, public art, festivals, lectures, reenactments, storytelling, or community service projects, we want every corner of our county to reflect the spirit of 1776 and showcase our diverse contributions to the American story.
The Shelter Island History Museum is a proud member of the Suffolk250 committee and we are eager to announce events and exhibits related to local Revolutionary-era history for 2026. Watch this page for news and updates!
