One of the museum's goals is to have as much of the collection available to the public as possible. We are working on this in many ways. In our research area we have developed over 25 notebooks on a variety of topics like old houses, the beach, schools, the trolley era, and Goody Cole. Hundreds of our post cards from our collection are available to browse through; and our web site reaches far beyond those in our immediate area.
Another way we are hoping to get more information out is to develop a series of Power Point slide shows relating to Hampton's history. Our first show will be on Sunday, April 27 at 2 pm, where we are selecting some of the images from our glass plate negative collection. These images include a combination of beach, village and old coast guard station scenes. We will also display some of the actual glass plate negatives and explain how the process worked.
