Southampton Historical Museum
The museum encompasses seven historic structures, including an 1843 whaling captain's home (awarded a unique design designation on the National Register of Historic Place), a country store, an old-fashioned apothecary, a pre–Revolutionary War barn, and a blacksmith shop. Montauk and Shinnecock tribal artifacts are also on display. Art exhibitions, music recitals, classes, and year-round special events are held, including summer cocktail parties (and an occasional "yappy hour" for the pups), Harvest Day in September, a Latin Fiesta in October, and the Hearthside Cheer celebration in December.
