Activities Future The Oxford Historical Commission sponsors monthly discussions called “Let’s Talk Oxford History Discussions” beginning in 2023, with plans to continue them monthly in 2024. The invitation to participate is extended to everyone, from longtime residents to others who have recently moved to Oxford, to come together to share, listen, ask questions, and learn about the town. The informal discussions are held at the Oxford Senior Center, located at 323 Main Street, usually on the second Tuesday of the month from 1 PM to 2 PM.
Come and enjoy the discussions! September 2024 - Picnic at the Fort. |
