New Items in the Gift Shop
We have added two new items to our gift shop. The first is a note card depicting the Fox sisters’ home in Hydesville. The artist is Judi Palermo Shumway, a former resident of Newark who is also the artist of our popular Newark Diner note cards.
We are also pleased to offer “Nestle In Fulton NY”, a book by Fulton resident Jim Farfaglia. Jim spoke at the museum recently, and the book gives a fascinating look at the progress of manufacturing during the 20th century along with the social dynamic that arose from being Fulton’s largest employer.

Roosevelt School: More Than Just a Building by Cynthia Russell
Built in 1912, Roosevelt School was lost to history about one year ago. Cynthia Russell, President of N-AHS, will tell us the story of education in East Newark, which began with a two-room schoolhouse. You’ll see photos of students and teachers through the years.
This presentation is part of the Historical Society’s Winter Lecture Series. It was to be held at the museum on March 14th, but has been postponed to a future date. Admission is free (donations gratefully accepted). Reservations are not necessary but are accepted by calling 315-331-6409.
