Snow Golf: Chip, Drive, & Putt for Preservation

We held our inaugural Snow Golf challenge in 2023 on a beautiful snowy day and had so much fun, we’ve made it an annual event! Snow or no snow, seasoned golfer or novice, we always have a great time for a good cause. Once again we’ll be partnering with the Brattleboro Country Club on the design and layout of our challenges and featuring our popular Scott Farm pop up bar and Newton’s Curveball Concessions food cart.

New to Snow Golf? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to hit a golf ball in the snow? So did Rudyard Kipling! Kipling invented Snow Golf right here in Vermont at his home - Naulakha. As stewards of Naulakha, we’re excited to continue the tradition right where it was born with a fun wintery fundraiser.

Snow Golf is just like regular golf but even more fun…because it’s in the snow! Our event is designed to be a fun challenge for anyone who wants a unique way to stay active in the depths of Winter as well as seasoned golfers wanting to practice their game in the off season. And everyone is invited to eat, drink, and enjoy the ambiance, even if you’re not golfing. Prizes will be awarded for winners at each challenge, best dressed, longest distance traveled, and more. 

All proceeds support our historic preservation work, helping us maintain these beautiful historic properties, produce place-based educational programs, and save additional historic buildings.

Space is limited, and tee times will sell out, so register today! Why not make a weekend of it and stay at one of our properties while you're here?

Costume Collection Tea and Talk Fundraiser with Madelyn Shaw

Feb 13, 2026 - Feb 13, 2026 101 Ferry Road Bristol, RI 02809

Step into the world of Downton Abbey through the lens of fashion, class, and social change. What we wear shapes how we’re seen—and during the Edwardian era through the interwar years, clothing reflected some of the most dramatic shifts in British and American society.

In this illustrated talk, Madelyn Shaw—curator of dress and textiles and former theatrical costumer—unpacks how the show’s costume designers used clothing to define character, status, and evolving social roles. From the grandeur of the Grantham family to the nuanced styles of their household and social circles, discover how sartorial choices helped tell the story of a changing world.

The program also explores the historical accuracy of the costumes—and where creative liberties were taken, and why. Insightful, visually rich, and perfect for fans of Downton Abbey, history, and fashion alike.

All proceeds from this fundraiser benefit Blithewold’s Costume Collection.

New Haven Museum: "It's Pronounced Ah-beetz" Exhibition Opening

Oct 9, 2025 - Oct 31, 2027 New Haven Museum 114 Whitney Avenue, New Haven, CT 06510

The New Haven Museum (NHM) will open a new free-admission exhibit titled “Pronounced Ah-Beetz”, exploring the history, culture, and legacy of New Haven-style apizza.

The exhibit traces pizza’s origins from Italy’s working-class food to its rise in New Haven, highlighting the city’s “Big 3” iconic pizzerias — Frank Pepe’s Pizzeria Napoletana, Sally’s Apizza, and Modern Apizza — and how they became national favorites. It will also showcase other local pizzerias such as Ernie’s, Zuppardi’s, BAR, Zeneli’s, Olde World, and the Big Green Pizza Truck, portraying the deep ties between family, food, and community.

Co-curated by Jason Bischoff-Wurstle (NHM), and Gorman Bechard, Dean Falcone, and Colin M. Caplan — the team behind the documentary “Pizza, A Love Story” — the exhibit features:

  • Artifacts, oral histories, and memorabilia from local collections.
  • Video footage from the documentary.
  • Replicas of the “Big 3” pizzerias, complete with a realistic brick oven.
  • Short histories of Foxon Park Soda and locally served beers

The idea originated in 2009 during the making of the documentary, with Caplan recognized as the main historian of New Haven pizza. Recently, following a trip to Washington, D.C., where Representative Rosa DeLauro declared New Haven the “Pizza Capital of the U.S.”, the curators expanded the project with new materials.

The exhibit’s title, “Pronounced Ah-Beetz,” reflects the authentic New Haven pronunciation of apizza (from Italian la pizza). It will be on display through October 2027.

Feb 13, 2026 - Feb 14, 2026 33 Hawley St Northampton, MA 01060

What truly makes a “good mom”? MOM* invites audiences into the unfiltered inner world of motherhood, womanhood, and the expectations we carry as daughters, potential mothers, stepmothers, and bio-moms.

In this powerful solo performance, Shir Livne blends circus arts, intimate storytelling, and excerpts from her fiery teenage journals to explore the messy, funny, and deeply human realities behind the roles we’re taught to play. With an absurdist lens and emotional honesty, MOM* challenges assumptions about what motherhood is “supposed” to feel like—and celebrates what it actually feels like.

Thought-provoking, vulnerable, and unexpectedly humorous, MOM* offers a moving theatrical experience that resonates with anyone who has questioned identity, expectations, and the meaning of care.
