Discover Hamptons History with East Hampton Historical Society’s Guided Tours

David Andrewsby David Andrews
in Featured, Recreation
Home Recreation
Tour of the Thomas and Mary Nimmo Moran Home & Studio

We all know that September is the best month in the Hamptons. The summer renters have mostly gone (we’ll miss you!). The weather practically demands that you go out for a walk. Maybe you’ve been too busy at the beach or planning activities for the kids, but now that it’s September, take a stroll, stretch your legs, and explore the rich, beautiful history around the Hamptons.

 

The East Hampton Historical Society is hosting Guided Walking Tours around the Hamptons all September long, so stay a while and listen.

 

I love walking tours not just because of the guides, who are great storytellers, but the company and conversations sparked with other attendees. We’re the kind of people you’ll see, hands on hips, squinting to read the well-worn plaque on a historical monument. The people who read those brown signs, who pick up and read the local leaflets at a museum or hotel lobby. 

 

I won’t believe you if you haven’t been intrigued to discover what’s happening behind the bold, amber-colored farmhouse by the windmill in East Hampton Village. They’ve been renovating it based on strict Village codes (honestly, that alone is enough of a draw for me). Inside, you’ll explore the original woodworking shop where the Dominy family produced clocks in the late 1790s.

 

Are history buffs all know it alls? I don’t know about all that, but you’ll definitely be around a wealth of knowledge. In fact, you can become someone who knows something! Okay, hard sell aside, if you’ve never been on a Guided Tour with the East Hampton Historical Society, you’re missing out on a side of the Hamptons you might otherwise miss. 

 

Sure, you know about the Pollack Krasner House, that’s meat and potatoes! Let’s go a little deeper—Have you been in the Moran Studio? The OG, the FIRST artist’s studio in the Hamptons, this quirky Queen Anne cottage was built in 1884.

 

The general pace for the walking tours is easy-going, making sure you have enough time to take in all the information and local lore.

 

Register HERE. All tickets are FREE for Members and $12 otherwise.

Tour with EHTPS Moran Studio and Ocean Avenue, East Hampton. 

Saturday, September 23 @ 12pm 

(1.5 miles, easy pace). Beginning with a presentation by Mary Mallios of the East Hampton Historical Society at the home of painter Thomas Moran. Mary makes this fun-loving painter and his life come alive. (Who knew he was instrumental in Yellowstone becoming a national park?) Afterward, we will walk the historic Ocean Avenue district where we will see the gorgeous summer “cottages” of East Hampton’s original summer colony and hear the stories of the wealthy families who followed artists like Moran to the Hamptons and introduced the iconic shingle style of building here.  Leader: Irene Daria, 917-854-5296, [email protected] 

 

Tour with EHTPS: The Fascinating Story of Leisurama, with Montauk Historical Society

Wednesday, September 27 @10am

(2 miles) Executive Director Mia Certic leads this excursion through Culloden Shores. The community and beachfront are special, but it’s the Leisurama Story, buying a vacation house in Macy’s circa 1963, that steals the show.

  • Steeped in tradition, history, and familiarity, a refurbished Sagaponack General Store has reopened its doors. Though still on the same footprint, the renovated establishment feels larger and more spacious, with an open layout and abundant natural light that adds warmth and charm. It now shares space with the newly restored historic Post Office at 542 Sagg Main Street in Sagaponack, located between Sagaponack Road and Hedges Lane, just south of the Sagaponack Common School.⁠
⁠
The original 1878 building was meticulously moved 15 feet back from Sagg Main Street and now features a welcoming new porch. The Post Office, located there as well, has its own handicapped-accessible entrance. While construction is complete, the Post Office has not yet reopened to the public. ⁠
