Historic Newtown Square Day
Our Annual celebration of Newtown Square (Summer)
Join us for a community celebration! Grab a bite to eat and enjoy live bluegrass music while visiting the vendors and organizations or playing games at our outdoor market. Go back in time, with hands-on history at the Square Tavern and tours of other historic sites. New this year – visit the “NS Antique Roadshow!” Bring that interesting knickknack or that mysterious family heirloom you’ve always wondered about and get an expert evaluation. A great day out for kids and adults alike. Bring your friends and neighbors.
Historic Newtown Square Day (formally known as Colonial Heritage Day) is an annual one-day celebration that is filled with events including tours of historic sites and private properties plus colonial artisans and crafters. This year we will be celebrating the 300th anniversary of the Newtown Square Friends Meeting House.
The majority of activities take place at the Square Tavern- at the corner of Rt. 252 and Goshen Road

Inside the Square Tavern: Step back in time with hands on history: taste food from a Colonial kitchen, try your hand at traditional skills, eavesdrop on scenes from tavern life, and take home your own Polaroid from the Past!
New this year – the “Newtown Square Antique Roadshow”! From 1pm – 3pm at The Square Tavern you can have your attic treasures, family heirlooms, and curious brick-a-brac reviewed and expertly evaluated by Wilson Antiques.
