[MassHistPres] [HP-NH] [HP-MA] REMINDER--RFP for NH Historic Sites Interpretive Assessment due March 28!

[Wilson, Linda]

The New Hampshire Division of Historical Resources (NHDHR) is seeking a
qualified consultant to work with state offices and historic site
friends groups to develop new theme based interpretive models at the
following five state owned historic sites:

 

*           The Wentworth-Coolidge Mansion, Little Harbor Road,
Portsmouth, NH

*           The Robert Frost Farm, 122 Rockingham Road, Derry, NH

*           The Franklin Pierce Homestead, Off Route 31, Hillsborough,
NH

*           The John Wingate Weeks Home, Off Route 3, Lancaster, NH

*           The Tip Top House, The Summit of Mt. Washington, Sargent's
Purchase, NH

 

The above historic sites represent architectural traditions and
historical contexts that span from the mid-Eighteenth Century to the
early 20th century.  The interiors are a mix of fully and partially
furnished rooms that represent a particular period of significance to
the house to sparsely and unfurnished spaces that rely on less
traditional modes of interpretation.  Using existing research and museum
displays this project, funded by a Preserve America Grant granted to the
NHDHR for the reinterpretation of select state owned historic sites in
NH, will work to improve the visitor experience and attract new
audiences, engage key supporters at these historic sites, and provide a
thematic focus to the interpretation of these sites. For more
information on this project please visit our website at www.nh.gov\nhdhr

Bidders" in the "Quick Links" box on the main page.  To open directly to
