Hamilton Hall was built in 1805 as the meeting house for the Salem Federalist Party in opposition to the Jefferson administration. In the Civil War era, the Hall was home for an illustrious immigrant family from Curacao (next island over from Aruba!) who were major speakers and activists for the abolition movement, and the family ran a large catering business out of the house using the giant brick hearth you will see during cocktail hour from 4:30-5:30pm. Thank you for joining us as we make a little history there ourselves!
