On Saturday, October 9, 2021 the Hill House Museum will host the sailors from the USS Constellation and soldiers from Fort Norfolk as they discus the Battle of Craney Island and the role Portsmouth and its militia played in the War of 1812.  This event will be in conjunction with Portsmouth's Museum Day and will be set-up in the gardens of the museum.  Everyone who stops by the Hill House Museum will not only learn more about the sailor’s tools, food/drink, weapons, and personal items but also tour the Hill House as well, Portsmouth’s only historic home museum.  Free to the public.
