#GIVINGTUESDAYNOW

Picture
Tuesday, May 5, 2020 | Giving Tuesday Now
A generous donor will match all contributions
on Giving Tuesday Now up to a total of $5,000!

We hope you and your loved ones are healthy and coping during this worrying time.

At Historic Northampton we’re all working remotely on projects that support our home-bound community.


  • History at Home is our new on-line resource for teachers and families with school-aged children. It features hands-on activities, short videos about artifacts and other cool stuff about local history.  
  • COVID-19 Stories our new digital archives, is a joint project with the Daily Hampshire Gazette. It includes dozens of stories, poems, art and photographs submitted by local people documenting their lives and thoughts during  the coronavirus pandemic.
We’re keeping our grounds open to the public  Musicians have practiced both social distancing and their instruments on our patio, and friends have enjoyed each other's company at the picnic tables over a take-out meal. Meanwhile, our vacant parking lot has been put to good use by our Graves Avenue neighbors, who have drawn chalk activities for kids to play at a socially safe distances.
We hope you’ll consider supporting Historic Northampton and other non-profits on Giving Tuesday, May 5, 2020.
We’re so looking forward to welcoming you back to Historic Northampton!  In meantime, check out the reflections and experiences of your neighbors during this pandemic.


"Historic Northampton is a treasure in our community! It is amazing to see the ways HN has evolved to connect with the community in this crazy time." 
"I've read all of these covid-19 stories, and they will stay with me for a long time."

"We just ran into [our neighbors] in your parking lot where they made a wonderful variation on hopscotch out of chalk.  Our kids did a great job of staying 6 feet apart and had a blast, too.  Thanks so much for anchoring such a lovely community."
