History reopens at Strawbery Banke
PORTSMOUTH — After being closed for more than a year, many of Strawberry Banke Museum’s historic homes will welcome visitors back starting Saturday.
The 10-acre museum, including its heirloom gardens, will be open for touring between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. through Oct. 17.
There’s 300 years of history in this Puddle Dock neighborhood. Costumed role players portray real people who once lived in the area, and there are craft demonstrations.
In addition, because opening day falls on the day of Juneteenth celebrations around the country, the museum will share information about June 19, 1965, and the emancipation of people who had been enslaved in the United States.
New this season is the construction of an Indigenous peoples’ wigwam to help share Abenaki heritage. The wigwam sits on what would have been the banks of the tidal inlet that formed the center of the neighborhood.

It’s elementary ... or is it?

Chris Stapleton adds third NH show
GILFORD — Chris Stapleton, a much-decorated country star with a knack for cross-genre collaborations, has added a third All American Road Show performance to his Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion residency this summer.
Stapleton, with Elle King of “Ex’s & Oh’s” fame opening the shows, already was set to play two rescheduled events at the Lakes Region venue — Wednesday, July 28, and Thursday, July 29 — but high demand for tickets led to a third night of music Friday, July 30.
