Canterbury Shaker Village has received a $2,500,000 grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. through its Religion and Cultural Institutions Initiative. The grant will support the Village’s reinvigoration of its on-site and online interpretive experiences to emphasize the history and culture of the Shaker faith at the core of its visitor engagement strategy.

Jon and Constance Old have pledged a $25,000 challenge gift to Canterbury Shaker Village’s Annual Fund Campaign, matching donations dollar for dollar up to $25,000 through December 31, 2024, to inspire holiday giving. The campaign goal is to raise $400,000 for the Village’s fiscal year ending March 31, 2025.

Canterbury Shaker Village invites the public and media to join the Guild of New Hampshire Woodworkers on Tuesday, November 19 at 10:00 AM to install a handcrafted gate along Shaker Road near the Horse Barn.
