Activities at The Hornbine School Museum

Are you looking for a local adventure for your family? Visit the Hornbine School any 2nd & 4th Sunday between 2pm & 4pm. We have several activities planned for you and your family.

Our 2025 summer special exhibit features the “Art of Hornbine School”. Stop by to learn about original sketch, watercolor and photographic depictions of Hornbine School from 1968 to the present, on display now at Hornbine.

This season, young Hornbine visitors have had fun taking part in our scavenger hunts; writing with “Slate Pencils”; writing with Quill Ink Pens; playing “Old Fashioned” Games and exploring our Genuine Outhouse! Adults have enjoyed looking at our “History of Hornbine School” exhibit which reveals many significant details of our 179-year-old schoolhouse history.

Vintage Rehoboth Pictures: Do you have pictures of any closed Rehoboth schools and/or vintage Palmer River or Beckwith schools? We have a scanner available to scan pictures during any of our OPRN HOUSES this season. Do you have any vintage pictures from the Hornbine Neighborhood? We are looking for any pictures of the Farms, Hornbine Church, Hornbine Achers Clambakes, Reese’ Store, and/or Hornbine School pictures etc.

We are happy to announce “Apple Days”, a special family-fun fall celebration that will take place at our last open house for the season, Sunday, October 26th. Join us for outdoor and indoor games, cider and donuts, and a yard sale. If you would like to donate items for our yard sale, please email us at hornbineschool@gmail.com.
