Member benefits
We offer no pricey baubles as member incentives, and there will be no 50,000-Watt radio shout-out when your check arrives. After our sincere letter of thanks, over the course of a year you will receive our newsletter, News of the Weeks Brick House & Gardens (now included in the collection of major history/genealogy archives & libraries). See for yourself the quality of this publication: Read sample issues on our Newsletter Archive Page. You'll also receive invitations to meetings, speakers, or events. But your real member benefit is knowing that you are supporting the preservation of a unique architectural treasure --- one situated on a family farm that's now conservation land for public enjoyment. If you are a Weeks descendant, you'll have the added satisfaction of forging a personal connection to the family farmstead --- on any day, from dawn to dusk, you can literally walk in the 17th-century footsteps of Leonard Weeks himself.
Volunteers
Volunteers at the Weeks Brick House and Gardens are always welcome --- and much appreciated. We especially seek volunteers interested in working in our gardens. Contact our office via telephone or e-mail: 603-436-8147; WeeksBrickHouse "at" aol.com.
Annual Meeting Weekends
Our Annual Meeting weekends at the Weeks Brick House & Gardens bring together Weeks family descendants from near and far, plus local history enthusiasts, lovers of early American architecture, and Portsmouth/Greenland area friends, to enjoy tours of the house and grounds, walks on our trails, museum visits, and special programs.
2020 Annual Meeting Weekend suspended;
online business meeting only
In the interest of public health, the Weeks Brick House & Gardens board of directors decided to suspend the onsite 2020 Annual Meeting Weekend in September in favor of a remotely-arranged online business meeting only. Members who would like to participate in this meeting online should email us (weeksbrickhouse "at" aol.com)so we can respond with an invitation. We are hopeful that we can resume our annual in-person gathering in 2021.
Did you miss it? Here's some fun you missed
at the 2019 Annual Meeting Weekend
Attendeed connected with cousins and friends old and new at the Weeks Brick House Annual Meeting Weekend Sept. 14 & 15, 2019. Saturday activities included tours of the house, gardens, and trails; an optional afternoon visit to the Woodman Museum in Dover, N.H.; and then sipping wine in the Great Room after bidding at our silent auction. On Sunday, a packed house enjoyed "Taverns, Travelers, & Tanbark: The Roots of Popular Culture in New England," by guest speaker R.W. Bacon, a lively look at early popular entertainment in the region. Lunch and the the annual business meeting followed before the gathering of Weeks cousins and friends departed for homes near and far. If all that sounds like too much fun to resist, plan to join us for post-pandemic festivities, hopefully in September 2021.
