It is an honor to be one of the 2026 NH Preservation Achievement Award winners! We are the only winner above the Notch. It’s good for our museum and for our town.
“Our small nonprofit set a lofty goal of finding a permanent home to house our history museum and then exceeded its expectations by purchasing a historic building in our small North Country town of Lisbon, population 1,600. It was an ambitious uphill battle that now seems like it was effortless, because of the overwhelming support of our many donors who trusted and believed in our work and continue to do so and a NHCDFA Tax Credit Grant. We are so grateful, and we will honor their trust by working and growing as we continue to fulfill our promise to preserve and promote the history of Lisbon, Lyman, and Landaff.”
It’s not every day a world-class traveler and photographer visits our museum and gives us a rave review on his website. Check it out at Bud Scheller Photography. Photo credit Bud Scheller
