From the reading, writing and ciphering of colonial students to courses in chemistry and French at Wilbur High School, there has been a whole lot of learning going on in Little Compton.
This summer the Historical Society celebrates “Learning in Little Compton” with a special exhibition and series of public programs scheduled throughout the season. We are especially pleased to be partnering with the Wilbur School Reunion Committee to present three special events on Opening Weekend, June 27-29. Former Little Compton students from all over the
country are expected to return to Little Compton to join in the celebration.
In an effort to bring you information in a more timely way, we have redesigned our website and hope that you will check back with us regularly for updates.

Join us as we celebrate another wonderful year with an Open House at the Wilbor House Museum from 1PM to 7PM on Thursday, December 12.
Antique Postcard Sale
Over 200 antique postcards of Little Compton buildings and scenes will be offered for sale during the event. Many of the postcards were taken by well-known local photographer O.E. Dubois approximately 100-years ago. The postcards are perfect gifts for anyone who loves Little Compton, most especially for homeowners who may see their historic homes pictured on the cards. All of the proceeds from the postcard sales will benefit the Historical Society. Members of the Historical Society are invited to a special Members-Only Postcard Shopping Hour from Noon until 1 PM.
Additional Vendors, Sleigh Rods and Book Signings
From 3 to 6 PM Little Compton Carriages will offer jingle bell horse and carriage rides.
