The Millyard Museum is offering a $3 discount on admission and a special lecture for AARP members all day Saturday, February 22. Admission includes access to all exhibits as well as a special lecture on The Ledge. Museum hours are 10:00 to 4:00 with the special lecture at 11:00.
All exhibits are included in the price of admission, as well as a special lecture titled The Ledge. As the textile mills were being constructed along the Merrimack River, rock was needed to build the foundation. Tons of granite were dragged from the Amoskeag Ledge and began filling with spring water. The Ledge began its second life as a popular 1920s swimming attraction. Learn about The Ledge, the year-round swimmers, and their daring dive routines. Preregistration for the special lecture is recommended by calling 603 622 7531.
