Come and experience the history and exceptional beauty of the easternmost villages of the North Fork of Long Island – Orient and East Marion. The Oysterponds Historical Society has meticulously created a living record of the culture of these villages. Through the donations of buildings, land, paintings, furniture, textiles, and a rich collection of personal memorabilia from the founding families themselves, the Society interprets the rich history of this remarkable area.
 


 




“A Stitch In Time:
What We Wore, 1776-1976”
Exhibition Open
Thurs., Sat. & Sun
June 26-Sept 26 2-5 pm

From women’s work to major industry, form practical work clothes to the latest fashion whimsies, clothes have been the product of both outside demands and personal expression. Come have an intimate look at how and why what we wore changed from the Revolution to the Bicentennial featuring clothing, artwork, documents and artifacts from the OHS collection. This exhibition is FREE to the public and made possible by grants from the New York Council on the Humanities and the Suffolk County Office of Cultural Affairs.
