Museum open today! 10-2. Come and see our exhibit, and say hello. There are Tamworth maps, books, t-shirts, hats and more in our gift shop. We are especially excited to have jewellery featuring Chinook and Mt Chocorua made by local Jeweller and silversmith Alan Phenix.

NH Gives is live right now! https://www.nhgives.org/organization/Tamworth-History-Center.

We are still to make a plaque for Chinook! We are fundraising for that this year for NH Gives, a state wide 24 hrs of giving. We thought honoring our state dog breed was a good topic to fundraise for.

We are fundraising for a plaque for the Chinook statue. Help us tell the epic story of Chinook and Arthur Walden, to educate visitors about our state dog.
