North Haven Historical Society Community Survey

As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, the North Haven Historical Society (NHHS) is looking ahead to the next fifty years. Our mission is to discover, collect, preserve, and share the rich, layered history of North Haven and its surrounding areas.

We’re asking for your feedback to help us understand how well we serve our community and how we can grow in the years to come. Whether you live here year-round or spend your summers on the island, we’d love to hear from you.

This survey will take about 5 minutes to complete.

Your responses will help shape the future direction of the Historical Society. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us!
