Hornbine School Museum Autumn Activities

We will have the school open for the public to visit on the following Sundays from 2 – 4 pm. - September 14th, 28th, October 12th and 26th.

SPECIAL ACTIVITIES: We have extended our OPEN HOUSE season to include the month of October with a special last day! Join us for APPLE DAYS at the Hornbine School Museum on Sunday, OCTOBER 26TH from 2 – 4 PM. Enjoy CIDER & DONUTS, outdoor & indoor games, crafts, and a yard sale! (Free to attend - $5 donation per family appreciated)

ON GOING ACTIVITIES: This season we have an art exhibit and a continuous video loop of Rehoboth’s historic school building, as well as costumed young visitors for you to enjoy.

We are collecting pictures of any closed Rehoboth schools. We’d also appreciate any vintage Palmer River or Beckwith pictures. Do you have any vintage pictures from the Hornbine Neighborhood? We are looking for any pictures of area Farms, Hornbine Church, Hornbine Achers Clambakes, Reese’ Store, and/or Hornbine School pictures etc. We have a scanner at the school ready to copy any pictures you may have to share.

SPECIAL OPEN HOUSE VISITORS: A visit to the Hornbine School Museum is an inexpensive and pleasant way to enjoy the day! Carleigh Louise 7 ½ and her sister Maible Jean Pacheco 5 ½ are Hornbine neighbors who have attended most every open house with their grandmother, Mary Louise Pacheco, this season! They have enjoyed practicing with our quill ink pens and slate pencils; taken part in our scavenger hunts and played many outdoor games.

The Hornbine one-room schoolhouse was built in the 1840s and is located at 146 Hornbine Road in Rehoboth, MA. Look for us on Facebook, on our website or You tube.
