For years the annual membership drive served as the primary source of support to carry the Historic Site through quiet winter seasons. Though winter is busier now, this event still plays a crucial role in providing essential funding to care for and maintain our valued grounds, gardens, and buildings.

Many members note this is a favorite BHA tradition. This is an open house event FREE to the community that welcomes new members and volunteers. Every historic building on the grounds will be open for hands-on exploration, learning, and discovery. Best of all, it’s for everyone – adults and kids alike!

Refreshments will be thoughtfully prepared by local businesses and generous volunteers. Helping hands and food sponsors are always needed and so if you are interested in volunteering or sponsoring, please call 252-728-5225.

Remember the RSVP so we know how many to expect! Invite friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, or anyone curious to learn more about the Historical Association. We offer a wide range of activities and events year-round with membership options beginning at just $25 for students and seniors, extending to the $5,000 Somerset Circle level. Each tier offers its own benefits. New memberships may be purchased at the Valentine Party or online at beauforthistoricsite.org under the shop tab.
