| Saturday, May 1 – 12:00 to 3:00 pm Annual Quest Fest A quest is very much like a treasure hunt, with maps, riddles, and pictures to lead you through special places to hidden treasure boxes. You will be given a booklet filled with quests that can guide your explorations of Keene’s cultural and natural history. Some of these quests take place right in downtown Keene, while others will lead you out into farms and woodlands. Begin the festival by getting your booklet and refreshments at the Horatio Colony House Museum , 199 Main Street, Keene, NH. You are welcome to visit other quest sites throughout the day. After questing, come back to the museum for snacks and awards at 2:30 pm. Free. Happy Questing! May 8 through June 13 Magical Miniatures An exhibit of Horatio Colony’s collection of silver miniatures, along with fully furnished doll houses, some examples of German Spielwaren, miniature hand-painted plates, vintage doll dishes and German figurines from the collection of antique auctioneer Helen Jesse.
