The Solebury Township Historical Society (STHS) is proud to announce the launch of a revitalized brand identity and a renewed commitment to community engagement, with the debut of a refreshed logo, a newly redesigned website, and expanded programming. These exciting changes reflect STHS’s ongoing mission to preserve and celebrate the rich history of Solebury Township, while inviting more community members to connect with the stories that shape this historic Bucks County area.
“Our board has worked with passion and purpose to bring new energy to the Historical Society,” said STHS Board President Russell Stephan. “We’re honoring our deep roots— which go back to the 1700s – by making our events, archives, and resources more accessible and engaging to today’s residents.”
The Society’s new logo was designed by General Idea, a New York-based creative agency, co- founded by Carversville resident Tanner Graham, who generously contributed the design services as an in-kind donation to support the revitalization efforts.
Thanks to our members support through fundraising events we have launched the new STHS website offering an intuiatve, mobile-friendly experience with easy access to information about historical archives, community events, and our memberships. The redesign was led by board member Jim Davock, with Kristina Gibb of Kristina Gibb Photography —a Solebury local—contributing many of the website’s stunning images that pay homage to the township and its rich history.
“Our goal was to create a website that not only captures the spirit of Solebury and preserves its past, but also invites people to discover, participate, and feel pride in our shared story,” said Davock. “We wanted the design to reflect the charm and character of the township while making it easy for residents to explore our collections, learn about local history, and take part in upcoming events. I am proud of how we balance form and funcDon to create something that truly serves the community.”
With these updates, the Solebury Township Historical Society is launching a grassroots campaign to expand membership and raise awareness throughout the township. With hamlets of Lumberville, Carversville and Center Bridge along with the historic districts of Phillips Mill, Cuttalossa Valley and Upper Aquetong Valley, we continue to develop new iniatatives including lectures, walking tours, and community storytelling events designed to bring neighbors together around a shared appreciation for Solebury’s rich cultural heritage. By becoming a member, residents can play an achive role in preserving and celebrating Solebury’s heritage while enjoying access to events, archives, and volunteer opportunities.
