About Portsmouth Historical Society

The Portsmouth Historical Society's main building at 10 Middle Street in downtown Portsmouth, New Hampshire, is made up of two separate Federal-style buildings that now house a welcome center and gallery space. The Society presents rotating exhibitions and public programs there, and the galleries are open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. from April through December. For private events, the Society rents indoor and outdoor spaces across three rental spaces that together accommodate up to 200 guests. A program room accommodates 85 people and is available year-round, while event rentals in the other spaces run April through December. Listed rental uses include meetings, receptions, outdoor events and gallery rentals. Rental options include table, linen and chair rental, in-house audio-visual equipment, non-profit discounts, and the freedom to work with a caterer and event planner of the client's choice; the Society can also provide a list of recommended caterers. The building's parking is a small lot at the rear, with a wheelchair ramp and automatic doors at the rear entrance, an elevator to the second floor, and universally accessible restrooms on the ground floor.
