Join PHM for a rousing lecture series on the Second Sunday of every month at 2:00. Our Curator, in partnership with the DAR as a Corresponding Docent with the DAR Museum, is presenting lectures/PowerPoints on early American history. Each lecture features a different theme and showcases the history of the United States as told through the decorative arts collection of the DAR Museum in Washington, DC and the collection at PHM.

The Lecture Series is free and appropriate for all ages. For a complete list of the lecture series, please visit our website, https://poplarhillmansion.org/lecture/. The lecture series is part of our ongoing celebration of America250.

September’s 3rd Friday is going BIG!

Join us on September 18 from 5:00–9:00 PM as Downtown Salisbury transforms into a larger-than-ever 3rd Friday celebration centered around music, arts, food, and family fun.

This special event will feature two large stages, a full family activity area with hands-on experiences for kids, multiple food trucks, street performers, community activities, and entertainment happening throughout downtown.

And yes, we’re extending 3rd Friday by an extra hour, which means even more time to explore, eat, listen, play, and enjoy everything happening in the streets.
