Partnerships
Christ Episcopal Church has graciously opened the doors of the church to host the Museum’s lecture series for the past several years, for which we are very grateful.
We sincerely thank Marder’s for its unwaivering support of the Museum and all of its programs throughout the year including recording our lecture series and beautifully landscaping the Museum’s fundraising events.
SHHM sincerely thanks Nancy’s Tailoring & Alterations for her magic hands and incredible understanding of design. Her tireless support of the museum’s efforts to share the historical costume collections of our region is greatly appreciated; this year’s highlight being the recreation of Annie Cooper Boyd’s 1895 satin & lace wedding dress.
We extend our sincere thanks to Preservation Long Island for co-sponsoring, along with The Church of Sag Harbor and the Museum, “Preservation as a Creative Art”, the first in the 2025 Architectural Series.
Our sincere thanks go out to the Ralph Gibson Studio for creating all of the stunning graphically designed posters that complemented last year’s costume exhibit “Sag Harbor Summers 1882-1907” and are complementing this year’s “Wedding Dresses, 1840-1925” exhibit.
The restoration of the Beebee Family headstones in the Old Burying Ground in Sag Harbor is made possible by the generous grant from the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation of New York.
We are forever grateful to the Sag Harbor Express, its management and staff for their unending and creative support for all that we do.

The Sag Harbor Florist has created all of the stunning bouquets for our 2025 exhibit, “Wedding Dresses, 1840-1925” and also supports our annual fundraising events with table arrangements that add to the overall warm and colorful ambiance of the events. Many, many thanks.
We warmly thank Sylvester Manor for our ongoing relationship in sharing research, images, garments, and objects for our exhibitions program.
We warmly thank the Shelter Island History Museum for our ongoing relationship in research, images, garments, and objects for our exhibitions program.
We extend our sincere thanks to The Church at Sag Harbor for hosting and co-sponsoring, along with Preservation Long Island and the Museum, “Preservation as a Creative Art”, the first in the 2025 Architectural Series.
We warmly thank The Church for sponsoring Mary Jane Marcasiano’s 2025 fashion workshop at Pierson High School, along with the Reutershan Educational Trust.

The Sag Harbor Historical Museum and the Sag Harbor Schools work together in a variety of ways throughout the year. Trustees lead history walking tours through the village acquainting elementary students with the Village’s history. Docents, who lead tours of the Museum throughout the summer, are recruited from Pierson High School. A number of Pierson students will be participating in the first archaeological dig on the property of 174 Main Street. In February 2025, Mary Jane Marcasiano, SHHM Trustee and Curator, led a fashion workshop with Pierson High School students, sponsored by the Reutershan Educational Trust and The Church. The students’ assignment was to visit SHHM’s exhibit “Sag Harbor Summers 1882-1907” and design a contemporary collection based on and inspired by Annie Cooper Boyd’s wardrobe. The students will present their designs this summer at a fashion show at The Church and model them during the Museum’s summer Gala.
