SUMMARY:New - HSH Book Club
DESCRIPTION:The Historical Society of Hammonton (HSH) is pleased to announce the launch of a new HSH Book Club\, beginning with a special Women’s History Month program on Tuesday\, March 31\, 2026\, at 7:00 PM\, hosted in partnership with the Hammonton Women’s Civic Club at its hall\, located at 418 South Liberty Street\, Hammonton. \nJoin us for local history and community!\n Tuesday\, March 24\, 2026\, at 7 PM Woman’s Civic Club\, 418 South Liberty St.\, Hammonton\, NJ Free!\n\n\n\nThis inaugural event marks the start of a new Book Club initiative and is presented in partnership with the Hammonton Woman’s Civic Club\, whose long-standing mission centers on community service\, civic engagement\, and fostering connections in Hammonton. \nThe first book selection is With Eager Hands: The Life of Elizabeth Coleman White\, which explores the life and legacy of Elizabeth White\, widely recognized as the “mother of the highbush blueberry.” White’s work helped transform blueberries into a commercially viable crop—an innovation with special significance in Hammonton\, known as the Blueberry Capital of the World. \nCopies of With Eager Hands: The Life of Elizabeth Coleman White will be available for purchase through the Historical Society of Hammonton\, or attendees may obtain the book through Amazon or the Whitesbog Village website. \nIn addition to group discussion\, the evening will feature a guest speaker from Whitesbog Village\, who will share additional insight into Elizabeth White’s life\, work\, and lasting impact. The program will follow an informal\, discussion-based format designed to encourage conversation and connection. Attendees are invited to bring their favorite blueberry dessert to share as part of the gathering. \nThe HSH Book Club is free and open to members and non-members alike\, and participants are welcome whether they have read the entire book\, part of it\, or are simply interested in the topic. \n\n\n\n\n\nAn Organization for All Ages \nThe Historical Society of Hammonton is dedicated to preserving and celebrating the rich\, multi-cultural social\, economic\, and political heritage of our town and its people. Our mission is to increase awareness of Hammonton’s rich history and to establish public access by collecting\, conserving\, interpreting\, and promoting it to the widest possible audience. \nGet Involved!\nThere’s a place for you at HSH. Help at events\, join community outreach\, support fundraising\, or dive into museum collections and oral history. With many active committees\, you can get involved as little or as much as you’d like. Send us an email and tell us what interests you! \nLocated in the historic former Town Hall (built in 1887) in Veterans Memorial Park\, the Museum is open on Saturdays from 11 AM–2 PM. Other days by appointment or happenstance (if the OPEN flag is flying\, come on in). \nFor more information\, call (609) 270-7652 or email info@historicalsocietyofhammonton.org. \nVisit us online at www.historicalsocietyofhammonton.org. \nFunding has been made possible in part by the New Jersey Historical Commission\, a division of Cultural Affairs within the Department of State\, through funds administered by the Atlantic County Office of Cultural and Heritage Affairs.
