Explore the carefully restored Sweat-Morin Homestead, once home to Reverend Moses Sweat, Sanford’s first Congregational minister. This guided experience offers an immersive window into 18th century life, with a classic colonial layout that includes a keeping room, birthing room, and parlor accented by original woodwork, historic paint colors, and striking 32 foot ceiling beams. Inside the main house you will find three functioning fireplaces and furnishings suited to the period. The grounds feature a carriage house, a family cemetery, and wooded trails, and the barn has been rebuilt using original timber framing with distinctive reverse board and batten siding. The homestead house and barn are handicapped accessible. Admission is free, and donations are welcomed. Signing up in advance is optional and helps with planning.

Settle in for an evening of music and fun. Admission is ten dollars, and attendees of all ages are welcome.

The Dance Hall hosts Feet Keep the Beat, a showcase of percussive dance traditions from around the world with live musical accompaniment. This program highlights how rhythm and movement carry cultural stories, with dancers and musicians bringing distinct styles to life onstage. Flamenco blends song, dance, and instrumental artistry, rooted in Andalusia and linked to regions such as Murcia and Extremadura. Kathak, a classical form from northern India, shares narratives through intricate footwork, expressive gesture, and elegant movement. Tap, an American tradition that grew alongside jazz, reflects the meeting of Black American and Irish step dance influences. Before the evening performance, a free workshop and sharing session welcomes the public to explore the history, culture, and steps of these forms. Participants study with three Feet Keep the Beat artists, spending about 30 minutes with each style, and experience how shared rhythm can build community. Registration for the workshop is handled separately to reserve a spot. Feet Keep the Beat is a signature program created by The Center for Arts at the Armory in Somerville, Massachusetts. Arts at the Armory serves as the fiscal sponsor for the touring program, and Ryan Casey is the Artistic Director and Tour Manager.
