Save the Date: Bluffs of Niagara Returns September 26–27

The Niagara Area Historical Society is excited to announce Bluffs of Niagara, a special two-day community event taking place Saturday and Sunday, September 26–27, 2026.

Ten years ago, the Niagara Area Historical Society hosted a similar celebration with great success. This September, we’re revisiting that event with a combination of returning favorites and new activities celebrating the history, landscape, and community surrounding the beautiful bluffs of the Menominee River.

A Weekend Celebrating the Bluffs

Bluffs of Niagara will bring together history, geology, art, music, and stories from the people who call this area home.

Plans for the weekend include artists’ displays at the museum, children’s activities, local musical talent, and a presentation from a geological expert who will share more about the formation and character of the bluffs.

Visitors will also have an opportunity to gather along the river for campfire chats with local residents — complete with s’mores. These informal conversations will offer stories and perspectives from people who have spent years living along the Menominee River and enjoying the bluffs as part of their everyday lives.

Special Bluffs of Niagara souvenir items, including posters, T-shirts, and note cards, will also be available for purchase.

More Details Coming Soon

This is just the beginning!

Each week leading up to September 26–27, we’ll highlight another part of Bluffs of Niagara, including the participating artists, children’s activities, campfire speakers, musical entertainment, and other details about the weekend.
