  • 65th Annual Old Homes Tour & More!

    Since 1960, the Beaufort Historical Association has held an annual Old Homes Tour in June to celebrate the rich history of Beaufort. The Old Homes Tour & More offers locals and visitors the perfect opportunity to explore a variety of homes, gardens, churches, art stops, and studios. The Old Homes Tour has always brought community – both near and far – together. It welcomes thousands who return year after year to enjoy the tour and the many accompanying events as well as the countless attractions, amenities, and activities Beaufort has to offer. Celebrating its 65th anniversary, the Old Homes Tour & More is a time of community involvement when Beaufort residents proudly open their homes to support BHA’s ongoing preservation and educational programs.

  • Seadogs Legacy Celebration!

    To commemorate the opening of the newly restored and repurposed Mulberry Site Condominium Homes and the Mainsail Event Center, the Beaufort Historical Association is hosting a reception celebration for the community on Saturday, June 27 from 5:00pm - 7:00pm in The Mainsail (old gym). This special heritage event will honor town residents who were students at the former campus or taught and administrated there. We will celebrate the old high school era Seadogs spirit that cheered on their basketball team through 91 straight wins in the 1950s and 1960s, whose record still stands as the “winningest” boys basketball team in North Carolina history! No ticket required. All curious to see the renovated gym complete with Seadogs memorabilia, decor and legacy trophies from bygone days are invited to attend the reception.

    An Artist at Work: Gary Bradley at the Beaufort Historic Site

    We are excited to welcome newly juried artist Gary Bradley to the Beaufort Historic Site this Saturday, August 29, from 10:00am until 1:00pm!   Gary will be joining us on the grounds to paint and create a brand new work of art inspired by his time here in historic Beaufort. Gary’s artwork has already been a hit, as he recently sold two pieces at our Mattie King Davis Art Gallery and is returning to replenish the gallery with even more beautiful work.   But there’s an extra special treat! Gary will be painting on-site and then giving the finished painting away through a drawing to one lucky registered participant!   Come by the Beaufort Historic Site on Saturday, from 10:00am until 1:00pm, and watch an artist at work, and enjoy the chance to take home an original piece of art created right here at the Historic Site! Thanks Gary!
