“Historical Photographs of Flanders”
on View at Town Hall 

From February 3 – March 28, the Flanders Village Historical Society is presenting an exhibit of 16 photographs chosen not only for their historical interest, but also for their quality and artistic value. “Historical Photographs of Flanders” can be seen on the first floor of Southampton Town Hall, 116 Hampton Road, Southampton.

The timespan of the works ranges from 1872-1963. Three of the photographs were taken by noted photographer George Bradford Brainerd and another by C. Manley DeBevoise. Respected sources such as the Brooklyn Museum, New York Public Library and Suffolk County Historical Society contributed to this exhibit. 

This is the second viewing of the exhibit, which was originally displayed in late 2023 at the David W. Crohan Community Center, Flanders. The Town of Southampton had funded the exhibit through a grant. Having received positive feedback on that show, the Flanders historical society now hopes to reach a broader audience in the township. 

Southampton Town Hall is open to the public on weekdays from 8:30 AM – 4 PM. For more information, contact FVHS Secretary Janice Jay Young at 631-284-3737 or flandersvillagehistoricalsociety@yahoo.com. The Hampton Bays Public Library also plans to show the Flanders photos this summer.
