BREWSTER- Looking for a last minute Christmas or Chanukah gift for the discerning man or woman who has everything?
Why not stop by the Putnam County Historian’s Office in Brewster where some two dozen unique gift ideas await proving that local history matters.
Through the auspices of the Historian Office staff, a guide offering meaningful ways to celebrate Putnam County’s heritage while supporting our region’s history museums, nonprofit historical societies, and partner organizations has been created, a digital copy of which is available on the Historian’s Office homepage at . Putnam Historian Jennifer Cassidy said “inside, readers will discover an array of locally inspired gifts, including books, tote bags, mugs, bracelets, and, perhaps most importantly, membership packages that help sustain the vital work of preserving and sharing Putnam County’s rich past.”
This year’s guide features offerings from: Boscobel House & Gardens; Constitution Island Association; Enoch Crosby Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution; Landmarks Preservation Society of Southeast; Putnam County Historian’s Office; Putnam History Museum; Southeast Museum & the Town of Southeast; and the Historical Societies of Carmel, Kent, Patterson and Putnam Valley.
Many items are available directly through the participating organizations, while others may be purchased through the County Historian’s online shop at and in person during public research hours: Monday-Wednesday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and by appointment.
