Activities and Meetings...
Our members’ meetings convene on the first Thursday of each month. Meetings are frequently hosted in the homes of members, many of which are historic structures. Snacks and refreshments are served during the social that follows adjournment of each meeting. In addition to attending monthly meetings, members often have the opportunity to participate in tours of historic homes, buildings, and other local historic sites, as well as those in other communities in and around Ohio.
Fund-raisers have taken the form of Home & Garden Tours, including those produced in conjunction with the bicentennial celebrations of Dover, Ohio and our county seat New Philadelphia, Ohio, as well as walking tours and horse-drawn carriage tours, and now -- an architectural salvage shop. Our second annual Plant Sale will be held on May 19th in historic Zoar, Ohio, in cooperation with the Zoar Community Association. For more information on the Plant Sale, click on Plant Sale from the EVENTS menu tab at the top of this page.
2009 also marked our first Christmas Tour of Homes. For many years the Dennison Depot Railroad Museum sponsored and operated the tour. Members of The Tuscarawas County Heritage Home Association are grateful for their invitation to take over the operation of the tour. Our third go-round with The Christmas Tour was presented in December of 2011. For more information, click HERE.
Our organization also sponsors guest speakers at Kent State University’s Tuscarawas Campus and hosts workshops and educational seminars on historic preservation and restoration techniques and materials.
