George Elliott, former LHS President, entertains members gathered at the Historic Complex for the 1999 Strawberry Festival, a members-only event to enjoy the local produce of the season each June.

By becoming a member of The Lewes Historical Society, you are showing your support of one of the premier cultural and educational institutions in the region. Members of the Society take part in interpreting and staffing our museums, working in our office and archives, and helping to run our annual events - in short, there is no shortage of Volunteer opportunities!

For over forty years, the Society has been a leader in historic preservation in Lewes and has been nationally recognized for its efforts. Our Historic Complex is recognized not only for the wonderful buildings and artifacts inside them but for the timeless beauty and parklike atmosphere that is maintained in the heart of historic Lewes. Our educational programming for school children and adults alike are exciting and constantly developing to reflect the needs of our community and our year-round visitors. As a member, you will receive:

10% discount in our Museum Stores,
A pass for unlimited access to our twelve historic house museums,
Our critically-acclaimed annual publication, The Journal of The Lewes Historical Society,
Our quarterly newsletter, Lewestowne Press,
Advance notice of programs, lectures, and special exhibits.

If you are already a member of the Society, please consider renewing your membership. Membership makes a great gift idea for the holidays, a birthday, to welcome your new neighbor to town, or for that special someone who holds Lewes close to his or her heart. If you haven't been with us for a while, please join us again; we've missed you. We know you will be delighted by all the happenings at The Lewes Historical Society!
